You must post a picture to get reasonable responses. Otherwise you are asking "how much is an old Chevrolet worth, with a lotta miles on it?"! Good luck!

Maybe its a 6214? 3-3/8" closed redular jack with spear and pen blades, nickel silver bolsters at both ends.

nope. 614 is the number. it is a folding single blade with red bone handle.

Ok then its a 6143...5" closed one large clip blade, bolster at the blade end only, sawcut bone handles, the daddy barlow.

i got out the glasses and magnifying glass. it looks like there might be a 3 after the 4. i cant really make it out though. but other than that the knive is as you described it. if your interested i will send a couple pictures.

To answer your question, a 6143 Case XX is a Daddy Barlow pattern. It's a good knife, but the value (as always) depends on condition. A redbone CASE XX (1940-1964) in excellent condition is worth over $100 (maybe over $200). But you described it with chips missing from the handles. Not good. The value is greatly, greatly reduced. Photos?
