If I'm reading it right the tang says Western USA. That means it's post 1973. It looks like it has been rehandled to me. The steel is great, amazing knives.
Since I believe it's been rehandled, I'll let others speak to the value.

I also think the handle is not original which takes away any collector value. Value as a user depends on how much someone likes it. You can buy great cutting Mora knives for as low as $15 so competition is stiff.
