Default Kershaw Trooper

Digging around in one of the safes today and thought I'd share a picture of an old Kershaw Trooper I have. I got this one new in 1979 and the card was signed by Pete Kershaw himself. I did carry this quite a bit back in the day.

Manufactured in Japan by none other than Ichiro Hattori.

The Trooper was the only model ever made by Kershaw with serial numbers from start to finish.

Looking around on the internet to see what's out there, apparently these bring substantial money nowadays.

Pretty cool old blade!
