Well Railroad Joe, it appears that you have a sweet wife to buy you things you like. I'm not the expert on case knives.

I would need better photos to say whether that is red stag or not. Also it appears that the back handle may be a replacement - hard to say but the pins do not look right.

If it was an original XX red stag 52131 in mint condition 750 or maybe more would be about right, but in used condition the value drops considerably.

ok when i get home i will see if the back handle is a replacement goin by her description of inside the liners and pics im by no means somebody tbat can tell 100% im taking it to somebody saturday that will be able to say yes or no i showed him a couple better pics and of the inside and of course he said that he has to lay eyes on it but not to worry to much but thats why im postin? yall know way more than me and maybe somebody will see one they want and they can call me 304-939-3258 if anything else using a phone fir what it is made for is alot easier on me while im away from home thanks again

Knife has been a part sometime.Handle pins look hammered and not spun.Bolster pins don't look right/ original also.
