If this is what you have it looks like a nice knife.

That's a fine looking knife JKS! ::tu:: Your pics came out well, and I think I like your white bone covers over the stag model on ebay! Also, ::welcome:: to AAPK! ::handshake:: 8)

Thanks ::tu::
I have always thought the covers where some type of acrylic.
They are somewhat translucent but their is a bone pattern.

Yah, for sure JS! ::tu:: From this picture they look cream colored and I definitely see the grain pattern! ::nod:: Even if they are acrylic they are really good looking covers! Just an overall nice folder! 8)

I have not heard of "Silver Dollar" knives but i am a bit familiar with the ebay seller linked to in opening post. This seller 'hypes up' the knives they list and always ask for multiples of knife's actual value.
My guess is that these are Chinese-German made knives maybe worth $50 at most. But, this is a guess and i could be wrong.

Information on Silver Dollar knives is hard to find .
This knife came from a large collection and think it is from the 1980s early 90s.
It is stamped Solingen and read somewhere it was made by a more well known German manufacturer.

I know nothing about the knives shown except they are fine looking knives, I'm under the impression that if it says Solingen it is of German manufacturing. ::shrug::
