Looks like a Strider AR. Maybe in a Lifter's Leather sheath. You'll probably get more interest if you identify it correctly.

If it's what I think, it's an old school Strider before the company's principals; Mick (Strider) and Duane (Dwyer) parted and is starting to appreciate in value.

Mick is still making knives under the MSC (Mick Strider Customs) name. You can find info on Mick Strider stuff here:

You can find Dwyer knives here:

Both seem to me making variants of some of their older designs (SMF), but I don't think either are making any variant of the AR or that there are any tiger stripe blades being produced these days. If it is an AR, it's a beast of a folder. Definitely built for hard use.

Dave Abrahams (Lifter) does great leather work and has long been associated with making Strider belt sheaths. I carry a custom money clip from him daily.

Good luck with your sale.

Your knife is worth ~$450, maybe a bit more. The sheath adds no additional value but may make it easier to sell.

The AR wasn't the most popular model (compared to SNG) so does not sell for as much.

You should go on eBay and search for SOLD AR knives to see what they went for.

Nice AR! I had a GB from that same era. Sold it a while ago and kinda miss it. Miss using it, but not carrying it haaha.

Disagree. I pinged some knowledgeable Strider folks on another forum and the consensus is $500 - $750.00 depending on condition. There is one listed as sold on Arizonacustomknives.com shown at $995.00. They are usually asking absolute top dollar for their stuff. You could try putting it up on bladeforums.com or in the marketplace here. If you want to learn about the other forum I went to, PM me, but it's a private forum and getting setup to sell anything does require a paid membership and takes at least 30 days, but there's lots of Strider fans there.

I probably belong already.

I'm using sold prices, not expected value or asking price. You are setting the OP up for disappointment if he puts it up for $700 (about what SnGs are selling at).
