Whoa, Charlie, that's a peach.

Re: Somebody Buy This Before I Do, Please
I think that could correctly be called a half congress
Seriously, though....I'm curious: does the rarity really make it worth that much ($500) in that (rough) condition

Oh, heck no. It’s not worth $5.00.

Re: Somebody Buy This Before I Do, Please
Whew! OK, thanks, Charlie....I know nothing about antique knives with obscure stamps and I am often surprised and amazed at how much some folks will pay for broken old knives that I would consider candidates for the POS Roundtable exchange
So, I just wasn't sure if maybe this was possibly one of those truly rare "white whales".

That's an incredibly rare piece.
$500 is stealing it!

All his knives posted are incredibly overpriced.
Maybe money grows on trees in his neighborhood.

Adding some pictures.
$500 just ain't what it used to be.

Super valuable knife. I can only imagine what one that isn't such terrible, relic condition would be worth.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

By the time you add shipping, that might be a little high.

It cracks me up when I see listings like that. People must think just because it’s old…..

It was mint, when it was new.
You can always get more money, good old knives are hard to find.
