What's it worth: Camillus Boy scout knife?

[FriskyDingo]

Just curious, I have a really good condition Boy Scout pocket knife I've had since I was a kid. I was wondering how much it's worth? It's just a little slipjoint, I think I paid 40$ for it in the day and thought it was a pretty badass little knife. Any comments?

Price looks about right, but I'm curious if it's collectable. No rust on it anywhere, in great condition.

When was "in the day"? How much did you use it?

It's probably more valuable to you than the present price it would bring on ebay--maybe $25. But it is a Camillus and is one of the best knives ever made. The value will go up. Save it for your grandson.

I agree with coondog. If it's as nice as the day it was purchased, and you have the box and papers that came with it, and if you take high resolution pics and have a positive track record of selling knives... you might get lucky and find someone willing to pay up to $50 including shipping. Fall short of the perfect storm described above however, and your knife will come in somewhere around $25. Search closed listing on that ever popular auction site and see for yourself.
