What is the approximate value of that knife? I have one and may be interested in selling it.

jed

email me at [email protected]

or post here as others may be interested to know the value.

Hello jed,
My best guess for one that hasn't been used or re-sharpened, and comes with the box and sheath would be anywhere from $65 to $110.

If bk43 stops by he might have a more informed opinion on the value as he seems to be more in touch with the knife collecting world.

I had absolutely NO idea that this variety of quality knives exist. A wonderful post, a real surprise. Great collection.

Ya' know, I have no clue. The market seems to have just gone nuts the last several weeks. Recent Taylor imports that used to be $20 - $30 are now under $10. I've seen eighties USA made that were $50 - $75 now selling under $25. You don't see many of the Blackie Collins designs for sale but you could count on $100 - $125 or better in the past. There's a Collins folder on fleabay right now and it's only at $67 with a day to go. It should be $50 higher than that IMHO.

If I were jed, I'd hold on to the knife if possible. Let the market settle down and come back to where it should be.

1980's sportsman series

i was just curious if you could tell me alil about the 1980's sportsman series i own the knife third down on the right (middle knife on right side with brass finger guard or pommel i think its called) it looks all the same but the blade stamping on yours is on the opposite side as mine and mine does not have the black Smith & Wesson print. the blade of my knife says Stainless close to the finger guard and is blank on
USA the other side. please tell me anything you can tell me about this knife. it was given to me by my grandfather and am curious to know more about it. - david

Welcome to the forum. The knife was produced at the S&W plant in Houlton, ME as part of the American Series. It's a light, general duty knife with a 440 steel blade and a rubber handle called the Posi-Grip handle. That knife had two stock numbers, #6085 and #330400, but I have no idea why. They were designed by Robert Ferraro.

The knives from the 1980's are good quality, well made production products. Collector interest is minimal but I'm sure that means nothing to you since your knife is a family heirloom.

Series from the mid 1990s.
I thought these to be USA manufacture but the one boot knife on the right says R.O.C.

I have two like the two you have pictured top center.

Any idea of value in near mint condition with box?

Thanks.

Anyone know?

Thanks.

Retail price in 1996 was $55.95; Dealer price was $27.95 .....I don't think there is much of a collector interest in these $30-$50.
