Wyeth was a Hardware Co. not sure what knife co made knives for them. Could have been several different CO’s Nifty old knife. Looks like a crack in the scale which significantly lowers value. eBay has changed thru the years and rather than primarily an auction site has morphed into something like put a fixed price and see if someone buys it. I always liked the auction format figured with good pictures and descriptions the buyers would determine what an item is worth in that moment in time. I like leg knives but with the handle scale issue would not value too highly. Just my 2 cents.

Houston Price says Wyeth was 1860-1934. Levine says 1860-present (1993 edition.) USA and Germany. Nice one. Value ??? J.O'.

Recommend you list it as an auction with a low starting bid and let bidders determine the value. Otherwise you can do an advanced eBay search, of sold listings only, for the item. You may not find the exact same knife but can get a ballpark idea of value. Condition is paramount in determining value so be sure to compare sold item with yours and adjust accordingly.

If you're not familiar with eBay’s advanced search, on the left hand side of the “search” page is a menu of sort features. Scroll down until you find “sold” and select it. Note: when you select “sold” it will automatically check “completed”. Your search will be limited to only items that have been sold. If you just select completed the software will not select sold - your results will show sold items but will also show listings which ended with no sale. That information can also be of value (the asking price was possibly too high so no one bid).

Looks like you have a lot of work selling them - wishing you good luck with your sales.
