Hi I'm looking for a value of a W.R. Case & Sons pocket knife. The Knife is a John Wayne 1907-1979 The Duke. The Knife has John Waynes signature on it. Knife has never been out of case. Any Help wil be welcomed Thanks

There are several of these listed on Ebay. You can watch them and get a pretty close estimate of value. As always a collector knife is only worth what someone is willing to give you for it.
Hope this helps,
Jeff

As my friend from Nagadoches (Hey Jeff !!

) and my other Texas "Reb" friend (Hey Roger 50/2050

) have so stated, and is good to know and understand regarding EVERY knife,,, a knife is worth what the market will bear, period.

Now, you can get a good "current" valuation from EEEK-BAY

, but never use a book value, it'll only confuse distort the issue. Use Jeff's advice for a valuation and remember the "market-bearing" statement

, it has saved me a lot of headache

, heartache

and T-I-M-E. Take care my knifer friend.
Jeff, right on the money man.
Rog, sorry to steal your thunder but I think it fits for sure here, yes?
