Please help tell me what I have and value - How do i post pics?

Thank you, all. I know. My father was sick for a long time. He lived on the internet buying anything collectible to entertain himself. I have more than enough to remember him by fondly!!!! Rooms of my house are dedicated to his DCP trucks and knives. All his other knives that I have sold were marked and by known famous makers. That is what made me look further into these. I have dozens of Ray Cover and Kevin Hoffman (I think they were friends) I did not want to mis-categorize these or falsely market them as something they are not. Contrastly, I didn't want to give away something that was valuable for someone to simply make money on. I love selling all his stuff to true collectors. My wife and I love to see his things go to people who love, appreciate and cherish them.

I sold so many knives before and I came across this website so many times. I really thought it was just a forum for people to show off their collection or talk about knives, in general.

Thank you all.
 
Thank you!
Can anyone give me any thoughts on details/descriptions? Are the other three stag/elk? Do the handle embellishments appear to be mammoth? Is the Mammoth tooth or tusk? Anything?

Much appreciated. If needed, I can post more pics of each, as well.
 
I’m not an expert by any means but In your photo it appears that the top three knives have some kind of stag. I can’t tell what the blue is on the second from top. The third one down appears to have some bloody jasper with stag. The bottom one looks like red mammoth tooth. All very nice looking knives!

One word of caution to Daniel; education and information is a important point in this thread but go slow in your decisions as these appear to be special knives.

However nice someone sounds and what the family situation is, our forum response on sales should be thru his Gold Member Private Mail box found under his Avatar. Look and talk all you want about the knives but if you feel the need to talk dollars just do it via Private Mail and all will be well.

One word of caution to Daniel; education and information is a important point in this thread. Also truth will keep everyone out of the Mad Moderators court of justice. Your situation would best be served by going slow.

On other subforums Gold members ask all kinds of price/value questions and receive answers from anyone. Is this different for this subforum?

I'm somewhat surprised that no one has responded to your questions in this regard. In regards to your photos of the knives in question (from top to bottom), it is my opinion that the top one is stag (although it is possibly elk), the second is most likely amber dyed jigged bone, the third again appears to be stag (but possibly elk), and the last (bottom) is certainly dyed mammoth tooth. Difficult to determine who the various after marker customizers were unless there are stampings somewhere that are not visible in your photos. I believe you can get a pretty good idea of the selling value of these items by reviewing completed sales on the big auction site as I have seen a number of similar 110's sold there over time. Again, my opinion is that all would likely be in the $200-$300 range. For what it's worth, hope this helps.
