Coke knife?
Hi, I am looking for age and value of a Coka Cola knife. Sorry no pictures. It is a round disk about the same as a half dollar coin. A tab for a chain. Two blades only marked USA pull out from the sides. Scales are Mother of pearl or plastic? Marked Coka Cola and in bottles 5c or 5 cents. She knows her father had it at least 50 years ago.
Colonial made knives similar acording to one book at the library. Thanks, Bob

Re: Coke knife?
Last weekend or early this week a seller on EekBay
had several Coke knives listed. They came up in a search
for 'Coca-Cola' under the folding knives modern 70 and up
category found under collectibles.
Several small novelty types as well as Case w/advertising logo.
In general, I don't think the small keychain type round like a coin
knives have much value or demand.
Diameter of the coin severely limits blade to not much more
than a nail cleaner or letter opener.
There would be a huge difference between novelty plastic and
a mother of pearl. No name brand knife co. on the tang normally
would indicate it isn't a highline item.
And along with age of the item, value can vary widely based on
condition, condition, and condition.
This is my general opinion based on very little and I certainly know
even less about Coca-Cola memorabilia.
Which I'm sure (72%) is as indepth a field of study as the Barbie
dolls or original Mattel Matchbox cars.
About all I know about Cokes is more than one a day runs my blood
sugar way up and I like the 25 1/2 Case cokes.
That's what I was doing in the 'Coca-Cola' EekBay search thingy.

Re: Coke knife?
Both Levine's Guide and John Goins states these round Coca-Cola knives to be fantasy items, i.e. they were never authorized by The Coca-Cola Bottling Company.

Re: Coke knife?
Name of this thread really fooled me.....I snapped out of it after looking at the knife.
I was looking to see a knife with a little spoon blade.
....

It was the hardest habit that I ever had to break..
....I have been clean for over 10 years.....still catch myself thinking about it.

Re: Coke knife?
Yes....I agree.
Quitting was the best thing that I ever did..
........but then it only made me mad!!
..I couldn't help but think of all the $$ I spent and all the crap that I got rid of and all the evil things I did to others!!
It was a long hard road....but well worth it.
