Keep it. They're fairly rare, and easily the best Emerson knife ever.:)
Which configuration do you have? I like the black coated plain edge one the best.

That one's nice too.
I just wasn't crazy about the satin begin a coating as well, so I went with the black.
At least it's plain edge.:) They're more sought after, and easier to maintain the edge on.

Yea I prefer plain edge. How much is it worth, ball park?

Hard to say, but I could see selling one for the MSRP of $400 pretty easily.
I've seen some used HD-7's go for $350, and they were only $300 to start with.
So $400 shouldn't be out of the question at all, especially as they aren't currently being produced (not discontinued, but in limbo).
 
I bought one 2 years ago from 1sks for $280. It might be even rarer now.
