That's roughly what I find them at. Maybe 5 to 15 dollars. I don't buy them tho.

I'd be buying all those up. If not to keep to resell. A original voyager in that condition will get probably more then $50 on the bay.
 
I've got a couple of those old original Voyagers (circa mid-1990's), and they're still going strong! I'd love to find an old Large Voyager with the PE Tanto blade one of these days... it would make a great lightweight backup tactical folder.

DItto.

The last Cold Steel I bought was a Master Tanto ( Camillus made) back in the early 90's. Traded it off in a gear swap me and my buddies had back then.

IMHO the OP should have kept the Police he found awhile back. Much better knife.

Yes I am biased. I do not like Cold Steel or Lynn.

Lol I sold that Police to fund a cold steel fixed tanto which I also later sold off to fund A new Kimura 11 and a select Replicant. I still do like spyderco. It's one of my dads favorite knife brands and his longest edc. I do miss that OG police but it was a little rough. I think a police officer is who purchased it too lol. Surprised anyone remembered that.
 
That was a steal! Unless it is rusty, or beat up, it is definately worth $35. I have never been lucky enough to see a $5-$15 Voyager at a flea market.

Used to sell a lot of miscellaneous at flea markets.Didn't much care if I got a fair price if I could give it away for a profit.Estimate what the seller might really need out of the item and make a friendly offer.Doesn't hurt anyone,and you might get lucky.The whole stock market runs on bid vs. ask.
 
I really enjoy the old cold steel knives like the pro guide or original voyager. For 5$ or 15$ I would buy that knowing I could gift it or sell it . Im not into the whole triad thing.

Great job.

I'd happily pay $50 for one of the old molded clip tanto versions in good shape.

My flea markets just sell crap. I saw a used, still dirty, disposable aluminum dip tray for sale... morons.
 
I'm happy with it. I like it better then my new medium voyager Taiwan made half serrated. I'm addicted to the hunt. Bloodborne made me a hunter.
 
I know this is late but just saw the post. If you say “original” as in gen1 then you should know the originals were not vg1 but AUS-8 and was not stamped on the blade. Also the pocket clip was molded plastic and not removable.. great knife for the price though. Good score.
 
I really like the old Voyagers. I've got a plain edge 4" clip point model, and it's still one of my favourite light weight knives.

Great score!
