I would say your collection seen here is worth in the $450 $500 range. Hope this helps

Great knives! Thanks for showing them. S&W and Blackie Collins made some magnificent knives together. I enjoy seeing these special variants.

Roger, I was really thinking hard on that gun and knife set. You kept walking by with it slowly tempting me. It was really great to meet you and hope to talk to you again next show. Thanks Did you sell the set?....just wondering!

Thanks Dan! It was great to meet you too.
