cato,

Here's a page from Mark Erickson book Antique American Switchblades. The "Mint" price is probably high in todays market but at least you have an idea.

Hope this helps,

It may have once been a Hawkbill ?? Flylock Knife Co offered a Spear blade in the 5" size but not sure if they offered it in the smaller ones. I'm not real sure what Challenge Fly-lock may have offered in the 4 1/8" ? The pic in the last post from Mark's book is of "Flylock Knife Co. " as well as my hawkbill. I have a Challange in the 4 1/8" but its like the other pictured with the clip blade.
