H&k knife Flak, by Benchmade? Worth anything?

[Texas Spenser]

Found one of these at a pawnshop close by. Action is assisted, not bad. Blade is beat to death but salvageable. Questions are: was this made by Benchmade? Is it worth picking up? Will be sub $10 regardless. Thanks in advance for information.

I bought a few of these on sale at Academy or something for $20. I use one as my work knife. Great knife, marginal steel.

I had one. Not bad, but nothing to write home about. Solid construction and decent steel.

I had that one, and the Unsub and the Citation. I paid under $20 for each.

I still have the Unsub. Probably only worth the $20 I spent.

There's a Flak on E-Bay, dude wants $155 for it. You might watch that and see how it goes.

Thanks...probably worth 10 bucks, then.

Just saw that..its the exact same knife, just in a bit worse shape, but serviceable.

I have been using the Flak for 10 years as my work knife at my auto repair shop. It has held up well. Here it is before I accidentally shortened it by 3/8” and reground it. It is worth the $10 as a user. When I bought mine they were on clearance. Normally they were $40 or $50.
