Does anyone have an idea of what this knife is worth? It looks like a really nice barlow but I'm not familiar with Cripple Creek knives and wouldn't pay this much. I wouldn't mind picking one up for my collection though.

Re: CC Barlow
hey vikingdog,
It is not really that bad of a price. I have been keeping track of Cripple Creek knives sold on ebay since 05. What i have done is keep the highest and lowest a knife has sold for. kick those out and average the rest.
In 2005 a 2 blade redbone sold for $55 (thats with shipping charges included)
In 2007 this knife sold for $138
An average on this knife with out the high and low is around 80 bucks
I don't know how much you know about this knife. They were made by Queen for Blackjack when they owned the brand name. The two blade versions of these barlows don't seem to come up for sale as much as the single blades. Queen has been contracted to make this pattern again (as of now, i think all they have is a single blade stag). Just the few pictures i have seen, I don't think i could tell the differance between a new one or a older one if it weren't for the etching.
Until the next time

Re: CC Barlow
I'd say it's worth more than that. Like around $150 at least Jerry. Several years back a guy here had some of the Cripple Creek knives and now you can't really find them too often.
Love all Jacks
Re: CC Barlow
That's the first barlow I've seen. They must be scarce. Thanks for the input guys.
