question about a Craftsman 100 year knife

[navihawk]

Theres an antique dealer a few towns over who has a 100 year anniversary Craftsman knife,mint but no box. Delrin scals and I'mm assuming its a Schrade.I aked him how much and he said the value is 195, but will take less. Is he in the ballpark or does he think he has a small goldmine?
Thanks

Steve, I think I know which one you mean, is it white delrin with Sears brand names scrimmed on it? (or something like that). There's another in black crosshatch. That price is way out of line, even if it came with the box. Keep an eye on Ebay, they pop up pretty often there, for a LOT less.

What is the pattern and closed length? I think there are several. Seems like a big trapper type is the best one (or one of), but I don't recall any that seem to have that value. I think the big trapper knife is a Camillus.

This is the one I was thinking of Steve. A bullet trapper.

Sears had several different patterns made for their 100th Anniversary. Judging by the price mentioned (which is still way off), I am guessing that it is the #95113 bone handled knife made by Camillus. Even if the knife is in perfect as-new condition, but without the box and papers, it would hardly bring more than $50.

Here is another issue, a Stockman #95111:

He said it was a stockman and delrin. Antique dealers think knives are like gold. I see Imperials around here and they're asking 50 dollars for them.
Thanks for the info guys.
