Im trying to find out what this knife set is worth

Post by mr300mrpba »

Hello,
I have a Colonial knife set that im trying to figure what its worth.
It is a 8 knife set in a case that has a tag that say "Antique jewelry knives manufactured almost three decades ago by colonial knife company-providence, rhode island. THESE ARE NOT REPRODUCTIONS."
Then there is a certificate of authenticity , It is a limited collectors edition Only 2000 sets available. It also says Antique jewelry knives manufactured in the late 1960s and early 1970s by colonial knife company THESE ARE NOT REPRODUCTIONS.
Does anyone have any ideas on this set?

Thanks
Don

Gosh, I have never heard of this one. Colonial knives traditionally do not bring a very high dollar. The mass production and lesser quality haunts them. This may be an acception. Any chance of getting a photo of them on this list serve? You might try talking with the company themselves too!
