Dwight Divine GS knife help

[Arkar]

Well I’ve been on here for I think over a year. And I think I’ve let my supporting status expire, which I just sent a message to correct.
I find myself needing some advice and found this ‘tailor fit’ forum for it.
I collect several types as most of you. And I had a streak of bad luck and I don’t know which route to take. I was sorting, looking at, some Girl Scout knives I’ve just started collecting. And thought I was being pretty careful. Sitting at a table I often use for such in my ‘knife room’.
As I was checking out a D Divine. Something caught my attention. Startling me a second. And I dropped it probably only a foot maybe onto the hard wooden table. The blade was maybe 1/4 - 1/3 open. And the darn thing snapped like a potato chip. I’ll try attaching a pic if I can remember.
Question. More practical to just sell it off for parts? Or try to find a Divine blade and have it repaired?
I imagine an original blade would be hard to find and I’d be throwing good money after bad.
But if I took the other option. Do many cutlers buy knives as such for parts? If so where to look.
Thanks in advance.

Hurts to look at it. Lol.

And of course after I posted this. I saw the Knife Mechanics Parts forum. Duh.
But I’ll wait to hear what y’all think the best option would be. Trust me. I wouldn’t try to get a ton off the knife for parts if it went that way. But the thought of chunking it is more than I can bear. Lol.

Depending how much you like the knife you might wait to see if you can find a replacement blade. I have some that had broken blades, a missing or broken handle cover that I eventually found a donor knife from which to salvage the needed part. Someone here may have what you need, but may take a while before they see your post and respond. Or you might set yourself an alert on ebay and find one eventually.

Of course, I also have a couple of rare ones I’m still looking for.

Thanks for the advice Ken.
I’ll probably look a little while but unless i just sure luck out on one I may just sell it to somebody that could use MY parts.
I’m not attached to it. And actually have a couple others in better shape. I was just curious what the ‘practical’ solutions might be
Appreciate it!
