Ed,
I guess your asking two questions, one - Why is my auction going so low ? Two - Are there other models of this series ?
Number 1 - Is bad karma, I guess. Your selling a EDC only quality, most likely early 80's knife. Value is in the eye of the wallet holder. From collector point of view, if you think it is mint or rare please don't buff if up to sell. We would rather see it ah-naturaal.
Number 2 - Your knife was made in late 70's - early 80's, sold frequently on the auction site, contracted to Camillus for Buck, 420HC. At a show I would pay 10.00 for your knife and feel good about it. What is it's family tree. see photo. Your knife is in left hand column. Bottom and one above. The difference in those two are the number of brass liners along the blade well. Oldest variation top left to bottom, then second column top to bottom. Top two on left were Schrade contract. After 1989/90 blade marks Buck begins in house production, look for silver spring rivet, no brass liners on those. ....300$s
