It's an early Jimmy Lile Big #7, hand signed by his wife Marilyn. She did all the signatures before he went to stamping the tangs.

The Leibowitz work makes it a pretty valuable piece to the right buyer. I would say the knife without the work is around 600-700 in good times, maybe twice that the way it is................to the right buyer!
