Feeling that I hijacked Eminence's thread I wanted to ask if anyone knows the value of the Old Stag Handle Case, Puma and Ka-Bar sheath knives? The Cases have not been sharpened but I am unable to post photos so my description is all you will have to go by. Eminence I apologize to you Sir.

Apologies not necessary nor needed. I enjoyed commiserating with everyone and learned a few things from the learned responders. We all have a common interest here.

Your knives are worth between $5 and $7,500 each based on the information you have given. IOW "I have a knife, what is it worth" isn't going to get you anything. An absolute minimum to evaluate a knife, if not in hand, is clear pictures of all sides with close ups of all markings.

Hey, no need to get huffy. I can give you an evaluation if I know what the knife is but you aren't sharing that information. Try walking into a car dealership and saying "I have an old Ford sedan in my garage, what's it worth on trade-in?" and see how far you get.

I have a book of collector values that has almost 100 pages of Case knives valued from a couple bucks to thousands. Where would I start with your knives?
