4 tool or 6? How old is it? Does it look like this Boker only with bone handles or does it look like the Camillus knife I have pictured?

Wazu,i'ts got four tools like the Camillus,but instead of the awl it has a pen blade.The master blade has a long pull,and the can opener is of a style I've never seen before.The jigging of the bone is 'old-style',like the Army-issued knives.Regards Gus.

Without seeing the knife it's hard to give an accurate estimate of value. Assuming it's in very good condition I might be willing to fork over up to $50 for it.

Sorry Phil,no pics,didn't want to look too eager.The guy asked 50Euro for it(about 65USD),the knife looks unused,will try to talk him down to 35-40 Euro(about 50USD).If I can land this baby I will post some pics in this thread.
