russian machete soviet style

[VinnyOcean]

hey guys wondering what a soviet style russian machete goes for nowa days with the saw back any help would be appreciated

I bought one quite a few years ago for something like $70 from a catalog selling used soviet-era military surplus gear. It was wrapped in "oily" paper with instructions in Russian. Its a beast of a machete, built like a tank. I also bought a nylon ballistic cloth sheath that fit the blade. I woudn't call it a machete, more like the Woodman's Pal type of tool. It sits in my truck under a seat..............just in case.

have they gone up in value like some sites say around 250-300? or generally are they under that?

I haven't shopped for one since I got mine, but checking around it looks like thy have gone up significantly in price.
