Trooper, with Presentation Case
 
Kershaw Trooper Dagger Model 1007, serial number 5173, with box and leather sheath is a very early production model. The near mint dagger is 9-3/8" overall. It is mint except for several rub marks on the very shinny blade that were probably made inserting the knife in to the leather sheath. It has not been sharpened. Double-edge blade with blood grove. Drilled for a lanyard, can be lashed to a pole to serve as a survival spear. Flat on the butt to allow for pounding on the handle. This one does not have the card with the production date, but we know about when it was made.
Mirror-polished, AUS8A stainless-steel blade, stainless-steel pommel and guard
Close-grained ebony hardwood handle
Includes foam fitted gray jewelry grade presentation case with harness-leather sheath with boot or belt clip
Serial-numbered and early production around 1981
The only knife made by Kershaw to have been serial numbered since it started production.
A magnificent presentation or gift knife!
