Judging by the numbers you give, these are recent year KaBars, from the KaBar collectors club. I'd say the WRA90 is one of the 1990 issues, one of which is listed as a Rancher with stag handles. Does the knife in question have a dogs head shield on it?

The LJN90 is a mystery to me. Can you give more information? A pic? Pattern? Handle material? Shield?

Value on the WRA90 ? Depends on how badly one wants it. I'd guess fifty or sixty bucks. I've bought a few of the collector club knives of this type over the years .

I think the LJN 90 is a club knife made in 1990. I think I saw somewhere that LJN was for Long John? Need to look for that again to make sure though.

yeah, ljn-90 is a long john pattern. 762 were produced in 1990 for the collector's club. polished bleached bone and 5 3/8" long.
