Is this used Schrade knife the best buy of 2012?

[koldgold]

Was this knife owned by The President of the United States?
Was it made back in the 1800s? Or is it made of pure GOLD.
At a starting price of $75 and a “Buy it Now” price of $160 + $43 Postage.:jerkit:

This old used Schrade knife must be very special at that price.

We've been waiting a long time for this one to surface. It was given by Sir Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher in gratitude for her heroism during the sinking of the Titanic. She swam through ice choked seas towing a lifeboat holding the davet line in her teeth. She was so chilled by the time rescuers arrived that they had to cut the line from her mouth to bring her aboard as her jaws were frozen shut. Sadly, it seems the "From Winnie to Maggie" blade etch is gone.

Anyone who would go for this knife has not done an adequate search. However i have seen a number of quite common Schrade USA knives in very good but not mint condition, sell for very high prices in the last few weeks. As an example, a Schrade, N.Y. U.S.A./8OT, no box or papers, somewhat tarnished, sold for $130.
For those of us who began collecting Schrades some years ago, lets hope this might become an ongoing trend. I have plenty of 'multiples' that i could sell.
