Between the numbering, place of manufacture, and steel, it might be one of the top two G-10 Natives in this photo...

I seriously doubt anyone has made a counterfeit version of it, so I'd say it's the real deal.

Thanks man, just 2 more questions and I'll leave you alone,
1) I found this knife hiking what might it be worth
2) from what I read they are tough to sharpen, is there a pro place that you know of could do it properly not to destroy it ?
Even if I need to send it to them.
Thanks,
Doug

Wow, I feel sorry for the person who carried a collectible knife like that and lost it while hiking. :(

Send it to Spyderco. They will sharpen it.
