that appears to be a 5th generation bulldog,with that tang and etch,this is the generation with the least collectors interest and would likely sell for atmost $35-40 with the box

They're collectable if you like 'em. I have quite a few 5th gen. dogs. ::tu:: I think what he means to say is that they will never reach a high dollar value. Too many produced to call any of them 'rare'.

thanks mumbly,bulldog collectors didnt like tang stamp for one thing,thats why they went back to the fighting bulldog stamp on newer ones,plus quantities and handle materials, cant remember who made the 5th and 6th gen but the latest ones are made by gec
