I have an Original Balisong that i'm getting ready to sell and dont really have a clue what it's worth; The blade is marked "11-521" and it is brand new with a completely un-used sheath and has the original wooden box with sliding top. Any help is greatly appreciated!
 
Re-inform me what the "11-521" handle insert is..?

The ones I have are:

11-525 Round Bone Stag Handle
11-526 Round Polished Buffalo Horn Handle
11-527 Round Bark Chico Wood Handle
11-529 Solid Brass Handle RAMBO Combat Blade

(With no box.)

I would have to say, that with the box and sheath, and mint condition....:rolleyes:

Don't go less than $150.00 IMHO.

Did you say that it has a nylon sheath, or leather sheath?

Some pictures would be nice.. :)

Second the motion. If it's mint you can get $150 without much stress!

Guys, thanks for the help so far...The 11-521 has round bone-stag handles and it certainly looks mint. the only thing i'm not sure about it how "clean" or should i say polished the brass(?) should be? The handles are very stiff and it deffinately hasnt been manipulated. It has a still perfectly flat nylon sheath and the box is perfect, printed on one side with "Made in Philippines exclusively for/Gutmann cutlery, Inc./Mt. Vernon, NY 10650."

I actually didnt realize it was worth this much...Is it tough enough to find mint specimins that i may want to re-thing letting go of it? Unfortunately i cant provide any pictures.

Thanks again for any help...
 
It's different when you are buying, and you are wanting to sell something.

I look for deals. I have found INCREDIBLE deals...
Kelgin Customs for... $10.00
PCC International Tanto... $15.00
Taylor Manila Folders (brass Skeleton)..$10.00
Swat Bali... $76.00
Valor Samuari Warrior... $12.00
Star Camo Warrior....$10.00
FHM DeLeon Custom Bali...$50.00
I don't even want to let you guys know what I found the Orig. Bali-Song custom for...:cool:

But that doesn't mean I would let any of them go for that much.

I'm trying to fund my retirement for goodness sake.

Balis can appriciate in value, to equal a good stock purchase.

Oh sure, I've lost a little, too...
Pacific style Sidewinder...$60.00..
:confused:

Since you know what it's worth, Don't cheat yourself.:)
