I’m not asking for a value, just if I got a good deal, which is a yes or no question. I’m not asking for numbers, and I’m not looking to sell them…I have no idea but, if I did, I couldn't tell you because you need at least a Gold Membership to receive an opinion regarding the value of a knife (which is essentially what you are asking for) per the Forum rules.
It costs $35 (for a Gold Membership and, if you get it, you'll also be able to sell the SOGs or any other knives on the Exchange and use the PM system.
$60 eachYes. I'd say yes, you did pretty well, getting these, for the price you paid.
Taiwan, AUS-8, auto, for $30 each, is not too terrible at all!
Yes, but current prices don’t mean anything since companies can ask any price they want, but it doesn’t mean anything is worth that much. And since all I can find are sold out and discontinued listings for these knives, there’s no telling if the listing price is even accurate.You can easily answer your own question by Googling the individual knife models and see how much they tend to go for at on-line vendors. If they generally sell for more than $60 each, then you got a good deal, if that is important to you.
It would not be a good deal for me personally, since I don't care for that type of knife and would pass on them if someone were to offer them to me as a gift.
If you like them and are happy with them, that is all that matters.
Asking if you got a deal is, in a way, asking about the value... Except you are saying Are my knives worth this? instead of What are my knives worth?I’m not asking for a value, just if I got a good deal, which is a yes or no question. I’m not asking for numbers, and I’m not looking to sell them…

I wouldn’t think Fleet Farm would sell fakes, especially since they carry a wide variety of Sog, Buck, and Benchmade, so I’m not too worried.I’m seeing available pricing at a little over what you paid to up to twice what you paid. Your price seems heavily discounted.
Your concern buying these at a feed store should be “are they genuine” not “did I get a good deal”. Sometimes a good deal is too good to be true, literally There are lots of counterfeits found at non-knife centric stores, and I believe this model of SOG might be one of them.
I’d be cautious using these autos until you verify authenticity. I’m not calling these fake, I don’t know SOG at all, only voicing what my concern would be.
Almost like they’re the same person. Coincidence probably that the OP was last seen at 6:59 then the reassuring post came 4 minutes later. Both 32. Both took advantage of the same sale through a regional chain. Small world I guess.Two dudes, 11 posts, new members, both have local Fleet Farms, anyone else know what a Fleet Farm is or am I just an ignorant California dude who isn't very well traveled in the mid/south US? I don't think a farm supply store would shill, so that's just a really funny coincidence.
Or two dudes from the same region who both like knives and shop at the same place?Almost like they’re the same person.

Funny “one” of you clowns were looking for a replacement for your stimulus. In your other account you talked about converting your stimulus because you couldn’t find a replacement you liked more.Or two dudes from the same region who both like knives and shop at the same place?
Let me guess…you think the earth is flat too?Funny “one” of you clowns were looking for a replacement for your stimulus. In your other account you talked about converting your stimulus because you couldn’t find a replacement you liked more.![]()
