What are these pocket knives worth?

[Guest drv2fst]

I was given this set when I was a kid. I'm not really into knives and am likely going to put these up for sale or trade very soon. I'd like to get some idea of what I have here and what (in general terms) they might be worth. I don't know anything about them other than what can be seen.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I dunno much about knives but the third from the top is a Boy Scout knife. Probably worth 50 bucks, maybe more?

Thanks, any information is greatly appreciated. Photos 3, 4, & 5 are of the same knife. It has a bit of damage to the can opener tip.

Actually the Ulster BSA Pocket knife is probably worth about $20 to $30. At least that's what they seem to be going for on EBAY. There is also one Coke Cola Knife on EBAY that has 22 hours to go and it's at $6.50 with 7 bids and another with a Buy It Now price of $25.

You might try researching them there first. It will give you a general idea of what they are worth. The knife made in Pakistan isn't worth anything.

In all honesty they are not worth much,

My advice to you if you want to sell them is to register with Blade forums and research the threads. You may find people who collect such knives and if you do they may be willing to pay more than the regular folks are willing. Best of luck!

Thanks for all the information. I did not have any expectations that these were really valuable. They were given to a kid after all.

Hey, you never know. Sometimes family members like to pass down valuable things to their younger family members. I ended up with a Belgium Browning A5 that what when I was 12. It was given to me by my Uncle who had no kids of his own. It was my Grandfather's shotgun. It will eventually go to my son one of these days.

one of those is a bokker, which tend to be 50-100 new and are generally high quality, esp the older ones. The red one looks to be fairly old and in good shape, but not 100% sure of its value. The coke one may interest someone but there a jillion coke themed knives and which ones are of value is beyond me, most are not worth anything. Of all that the bokker is the only one I would say is worth over 50 if you found the right buyer.

if the tree brand is an actual Solgien Eye of Germany Tree Brand 4 blade, then it's worth about $80 in that condition... I have the one like it that my father carried in his pocket for the better part of fifty years... More then three or four knife vendors at the Bill Goodman's Gun and Knife show priced it and several of the knives I have in my little personal collection, priced it and the rest for me! I have several knives running from around $50 to the crown of my collection an Stilletto of Italy, Itallian made pearl handle switchblade that is worth $350... a couple of choice case knives, sog, and others... most are folding knives, but there are a couple of straight knives as well... I use to collect knives by the display case full till I fell on hard times and as everything else I had of any value, my knife collection took a big hit..... oh well such is life, and it only takes one or two to skin small game and clean fish... lol....

Thanks for the update. I gave them all away to nephews over Christmas.
