That fine specimen was sold on ebay 4-5 years ago. It was in a lot of cheap Colonial, Boker, Imperial knives. My friend was not the winner, he was third buyer and it cost plenty to him, the lot sold for 1500 on the bay. I had seen the ad but did not enlarge since 99.999% of the time such lots with cheap knives have just that. My tail is still sore from kicking myself, in fact had to kick myself again when loading the photos.

Your 661 is in the best condition I've seen these knives in, ::tu:: and they are selling for big bucks when you can find one! ::hmm:: Oh yah, my vote is leave it as is! 8)

Here is a small folder of KA- BAR knives I have never seen before, my 661 is priced pretty much same as the big 21105 switch blade at 4.20 and 4.60.

Bought this KA-BAR / UNION CUTLERY tri folding knife. Trying to find some prices and found a Case knife in an old Sargents 2nd edition in the same pattern. Hope mine is in the same price frame.
