What, no small talk? First post and straight to dollar value?

Kidding :D .

There is no set market on vintage Italian switchblades, no price index to check for current value like with oil or gold. Prices go up and down, demand goes up and down. In the end, as far as dollar value, it will be worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

Are you looking to sell it? If you are, then this forum would be a good place to do so. However, the rules here state that you need at least 20 posts to sell anything here.

It looks like it's in very good condition (the only damage I see is the missing piece of handle next to the button). The blade looks very nice, it doesn't appear that anyone tried to sharpen it. And as gravknife said, it's a desirable size.

It could be worth $500, or $1000, possibly more (or not). Like I said, it all depends on what people are willing to pay.

Could you share a little about the knife? Like how you acquired it? Yours or your family's history with it, if any? Like myself I'm sure others here would be interested to know any history you have about the knife. The history always makes a knife more interesting. Maybe it has an interesting story, maybe not.
