Made in USA Cold Steel SRK Carbon V

[Sibyrnes]

I have this knife in the Trading Section, https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/cold-steel-srk-carbon-5.1898154/ . I know this is a very desirable knife but I'm not really sure of its dollar value. Some suggestions, please?

I really wish this forum would leave the prices listed after the sale. That would help members to determine the value of items they have for sale.

Looking at prices on other areas online, it looks like you could be listing it for anywhere between $160 - $240.

Amen! But it is what it is....the obvious conclusion being that that is not wanted.

You could always start on the high side and gradually reduce - no shame in that.

Completed sales on eBay would be a guide. At the moment there are Carbon V SRKs with starting bids below $100US and above $300US. Probably somewhere between is correct.

It is at the discretion of sellers here to leave or edit their pricing.

Just judging from a glance at "sold items" filtered results at Ebay , seems like about $120 to 140 , with shipping .

But you should check for yourself ! YMMV .

Minimum ~$120 to 140 shipped , judging from "sold items" on Ebay .

That's exactly the reason that they remove them, they get another knife like that to sell they might want to sell it for more. They find one like that for sale they might want to offer less. Knife dealing is a cutthroat business.

I had an SRK some years ago and never ended up using it. I sold it because at the time my state had a 5.5" limit so I couldn't even carry it legally. Unfortunately after I sold it the laws in my state changed.

Occasionally you find a seller who leaves the sale price so you could search for that, or as already suggested search ebay for completed listings.

I bought one new in box from from Luethge here not too long ago for $70.

That's not the same knife. Mine is one of the first ones produced from the early 90's in the USA.
I have moved it to the "For Sale" section.

 

[BP Green]

No. The one Luethge sold me for $70 was. Original ‘90’s Carbon V. Great knife. Gifted the later one to a friend. Great knives at any rate. Not sure about the new ones now that Cold Steel has been sold. Good luck with your sale.

If you weren't either a) the seller, or b) the buyer, it's really none of your business.

I'd say its of interest to any potential buyer/seller and would probably encourage more casual collectors to participate ,IMO .
