Take a look at these four knives and tell me what you think would be a fair price to offer the guy for them. I want the best deal I can get, but at the same time, I don't want to take an unfair advantage of the guy either. I don't think he has any idea of their value, so you see the situation?

myself, i would offer him 60.00 for the lot if there was no damage other than just being used knives, because the case knives are what i would be interested in mostly but two of them are newer knives. the appaloosa barlow is probably a 79 or 80. i would stay around 60.00 and perhaps go up to 70.00 if i really wanted them but thats just my opinion.

well, the barlow being tipped off doesn't help resale much, and klien don't have much resale either I'd offer $40 or $45

Well....We finally struck a deal for $27.50 and he pays the shipping. I'm looking forward to seeing what I've got and what I can do to bring some life back into them. The Barlow converted to a Warncliffe really interests me. I'll have to do some research and pick a profile that won't crowd the nail nick too closely and make it look Bubba'd up. I usually end up looking like a monkey looking at a football....examining it from every angle and wondering what to do and where to start.
