kbar collector knives

[priestrobert]

I have a entire set of kabar collector knifes from the years 1976-2006. All are in original boxes and have never been used. Only time handled has been to show or place on display. I am thinking about selling and need some advice. Is it best to sell as an entire collection or by the knife? Where is the best place to sell? Any body have a ballpark idea of value. Thanks in advance for you time, Bob.

I have no idea of value. The best place to sell is probably eBay because of the broad exposure there, but the fees are high. AAPK is a good place to sell - the audience is targeted to people who like and collect knives and the fees are very reasonable. If you want to sell on AAPK you have to buy a premium subscription. A bronze level subscription is just $20 and allows you to sell up to 20 knives. (Click on the premium subscription icon on the upper right of this page for more info or to,buy a subscription. The list your items in the Knife Commerce forum.)

Regardless where you sell, selling as a set will likely take a while to find an interested buyer with enough funds. Unless you’re willing to take less and sell to a dealer. Selling them individually could take even longer to move all the knives but you might sell a few fairly quick.

We like pictures here and would like to see your knives. Posting pictures here is easy - here is a link to a “how to” thread.viewforum.php?f=98 Just scroll down until you find the post pertinent to your equipment. Good luck! And welcome to AAPK.
