[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 311982, member: 3162"] The only opinion I see is what those things fetch on eBay. If you really want to know what it is worth at auction, I'd go to eBay and put in the knife model. Look at the prices of knives like that one right at the end of the auction. That should give you and idea. I've got two good Case XX knives that are really old. I bought one years ago at a flea market and the other came from my Grandad when I killed my first deer. It was old when he gave it to me. I don't care to ever part with ethier. I only carry them for special circumstance. As far as collecting goes, MillIron I pick up Marbles knives off of eBay regularly. Fixed blade knives are what I collect. The old American made Marbles are what I am after. I've got several collectors. I guess you know that just about everything of quality that was ever made now has "knock off" conterfeited counterparts out there in the market. These foreign knock off products devalue authentic pieces as it is often difficult to readily distinguish between the two. After you put an edge on a Case knock off and see that it doesn't hold, you know you've been had. If I had a really good old case, I believe I would just hold on to it. [/QUOTE]
