Jimmy Lile Knife? Advice Appreciated

Post by Nhooyman21 »

My grandpa left me a few of his knives and I’ve been having trouble figuring out the worth of this one. I can’t find one like it anywhere online. Does anyone know anything about this knife by chance? Thank you in advance for your time.

That is a pretty special maker and a beautiful knife.

Wow that's a pretty highly sought after button lock. Looks like he put ivory inserts on that one which is VERY nice ::tu:: ::tu::

They often sell for $2000 - $3000, sometimes even more. Yours looks mint which is a bonus. Your grandpa had great taste!
