Finally found something worth more than a quarter!

I've not been finding much lately on the beaches. But hurricane season is coming up soon. Hit a beach today not directly on the coast, but a bit calmer since I wanted to try some detecting actually in the water. Legend worked fine after dialing down the sensitivity a little. Picked up some trash off the bottom, made the world a safer place. Found this knife just about 3 " down on my way back to the car. Nice Ken Onion Leek. Don't know the new value, could not find that particular model #. Cleaned it up, gave it a little Rem Oil, and it's good to go. Good hunting to you all.

Those Ken Onion knives are super!
Kershaw home page may help. Might need to contact them with question.
I’m guessing the code is similar to this for DSBLKST: DS= Desert Sand (handle color)B= Black (blade finish) LK = Leek (model) ST= Serrated Teeth. This or something very similar. Congrats!

Thanks for all the comments. really in nice condition, used but not abused. I think Blackfoot 58 is likely right on about the model designation, thanks for that observation.
