This came my way by a yard sale. I have my idea what it is but would appreciate input to it and indication of its value. No makings.

Looks like an SOG knife, may have been made in Japan. If original (Vietnam era), could be worth a couple of thousand, if not original (post-Vietnam), possibly $500-600. Look through the offerings on Ebay and see if you can match it up to any of those. Be aware there are a lot of SOG knives from the SOG company, so be prepared to spend some time looking. There are also books you can find.
