Old 118 ?

[bhwapiti]

My knife I bought back in the 60's (?) is a Personal 118 with the BUCK
118
U.S.A. readable with the blade pointed "down".

Used condition with the original sheath.......What do I have and approximate worth?

Thanks to the members of the forum for your reponses..........it is appreciated!

Welcome! Unfortunately the rules here at Bladeforums don't allow discussion of values unless you have a gold or higher level of membersbip.

As Badhammer said, you can't ask for and receive values but I can tell you that your 118 wasn't made in the '60s, it was made in 1972, the first year that they had three line stamps.

Vintage?

Vintage?

Your knife was manufactured between the years of 1967 thru 1969... The spacers are hard fiber used from 1963 thru 1969, then changed to red micarta.
