I wouldn't sell it for any less the $100 - It's in good condition as it is, so it wouldn't be too far fetched to see $150. If you had the original box (orange and white, or blue and black), with papers, you can go north of $150. Because yours is a double side serration, there will be more...

There were three different versions of this knife. They were part of his river series.

Don’t underestimate the value of that knife. Blackie Collins design. Cult following on this one.

Nice Gerber Classic and a PK 1 Skookum - The coin isn't so bad either :cool:

I like the Barlow. The first one I had was a little loose. I think it has to do with the fact that the liners are steel and not brass. Steel on steel wears faster. The recent one is tight in spite of the patina. Not bad for a seventy plus year old knife (maybe). As far as a group shot...

Bye bye Houston!!!!!

First time I've ever rooted for the Yankees or the A's.

Can i quote him on that? I burst out laughing.

The last of my Western's for now. The injection molded trapper is a Coleman era knife. The Barlow is not the same knife that I posted a while back. It's in better condition and was a good deal. I sold the older one already and broke even.

I generally don't pursue Western knives that go on past 1978. The year that they moved from Boulder to Longmont, but that isn't a snub. Their quality was there, but I preferred the bone scaled knives. By 1985, Western was bought by Coleman, and that ushered in a modern era. Coleman was short...

Those look great. I've never played with a Magnacut blade. Keep us posted on your opinions. Leatherman is a great company.

A pair of large Western folding hunter's (top and bottom pic). While they are identical in design and blades, they differ in composition and age. The top knife is a Boulder era, natural bone with no shield. Early tang stamp. No model number but it's unlikely to be the same as the 062 below...

Here are a couple more small to medium ish Boulder era Western's, both in red bone. The top one is a 653 stockman with the uncommon 'match strike' pull. (love this knife). The bottom one is a 657 Jack. The lower picture includes the big brother to the 653 that I've posted before. A Boulder...

A bit, yes. But not too far off the original blade profile. The 442 is shown in the lower left of the catalog.

A couple of smaller, red bone Western's from the Boulder era. The smaller pen style is a 442 with the slightly larger knife being a 642. Same pattern as the knife in the previous post, just different, because when it comes to collecting Western's, there is no rhyme or reason.

A couple of early, Boulder era natural bone Western's. The smaller serpentine pattern is a 642 and the larger (Muskrat?) pattern is - I think - A 741 - That model number may not be correct, but that's what some Western collectors are calling it. There are five different 700 series Western's...

Almost worn out Western, Boulder era stockman. An early bone scaled 600 series with no shield. Rare combination of blades. A "California"clip, a spey and a punch/awl. Pre Longmont CO Westerns are not common as it is. That's why I take what I can.

A pair of early Boulder era Western Stockman's - Natural bone scales with no shields. These are the same model (658 I believe), but the only difference (other than wear) is the tang stamps. The top on is the more common block stamp where the bottom one has the stylized 'rope' stamp for...

A couple of Boulder era Western's - The smaller, two bladed knife is a model 651 in 'cracked ice' (some sort of celluloid or similar). Western referred to the blade as a California clip (?). This knife has had Western ground out of the tang stamp. I've seen several like this and I believe it...
