How'd I do?

I bought a knife I had never heard of before from one of those auction sites. I had to make a quick decision to either buy it or pass it by. Since it was a Swamp Rat, I decided to buy it.
It is a Rat Hunter, never used or resharpened, and it came with a Buy Brown kydex sheath. It has tan micarta handles and the blade appears to be satin, though the ad didn't say. I paid $165 + $7 shipping.
I would be interested to know how I came out on the purchase, if anyone knows.
What would you Swamp Rat collectors say the secondary market value is on the knife? Does anyone know what it sold for from Swamp Rat originally?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
I'd say you did great! :D Paid way more for mine ($295 shipped) last Summer, but it did come with a Leatherman sheath w/ Python inlay.

It is one of my all time favorite Rats too... :thumbup:

Here's the thread on mine: Rat Hunter

I can't wait to get my hands on it! I like the handle design, kinda reminds me of the old Ratweiler handle. This is going to be a user for me. It looks like the handle is big enough to allow my big hands to get a good grip on it.
 
Sounds like you did good....I would love to get a hold of some of those older Swamprat Knives....especially the Bog Dog.
