All About Pocket Knives

would like some info about these age? approx. value? 12819 12829 12839 and prorotype 2 blade 12819 and b1079

Kentconn,

I cannot tell you much about the age, But here is an idea on three of these knives if they were in mint condition:

12819 $1100
12829 $1200
12839 $1400

Keep in mind that info is from "The price guide to collector knives Fifteenth Edition" by Houston Price, and Mark Zalesky copyright 2008. With todays down market with knives these values can seem pretty inflated. For example, I bought a 12829 close to the same condition you have pictured for about $450 a few months back.

All excellent Knives though

I happen to own an 12839 like the one you show. I can tell you it ought to have an etch "King of the Woods", if it has the etch it will greatly enhance the value, if it doesn't, that probably means the knife has been cleaned and that will affect the value in a downward direction.

pretty funny asked members on this site what its worth and took over to mikes site and listed it for sale

It sounds like he was phishing for any member's insight for the benefit of his sale.
I wonder if we will hear from him again.

What's Mike's site?

http://www.collectorknives.net (it probably should be called gec all the time)just go down list on left side of page and go to knife forum

Thanks Troy.

I didn`t see them over there for sale

They are there Dimitri - http://collectorknives.info/simplemachi ... opic=128.0

yep his knives are there. but he doesnt give any info or pics. not like he did here. seems to me that he just wanted prices..you have to email him for any info or pics.

Ya know, when someone is selling a POS the give you way more pics than you want to see, but if they're selling an expensive knife they want you to email for pics Go figure

i dont know how to categorize this sale. either it is underhandedness or just plain business.....wait.....is there a difference????

Thanks for the link TJ, but when I click on it the page won`t open

The page hesitates a little bit before opening. I went through most of his threads there and they were all slow. I did just click on the link and it did open.
