Old Case Knife Need Help Identifying 1900's

[Potterymaker45]

I have a old case knife that I was hoping someone could help me identify. Knife came from a Asheville, NC Estate. We have no idea of the age or value of knife. I would appreciate all help. We have included pictures. Thanks

It's called a Sunfish or Elephant Toenail. To help determine age, we'd need better pictures of any tang markings. Value - can't help you there & it's in pretty poor condition. If you want to do a little research, you can look at Flea-bay or similiar sites to see what 'like' condition knives sold for. Again, value is whatever someone is willing to pay. If this was/is a family heirloom - it could be priceless or someone's desk paperweight.
