Western Cracked Ice Fixed Blade Hatchet / Knife Combo

Post by A&E »

I went to an estate sale today and, unfortunately, I don't have a picture of this item, but I saw a big fixed knife / hatchet combo. It's stamped Western, Colo one one side and has some number on the other . . . it was more like a serial number than a model # . . . I didn't have time to write it down. It's about a foot long, with a sheath, etc. Both the hatchet and knife are in nearly unused condition.

It has cracked ice handles and appeared to be unused. I actually cut myself when I was looking at it! Razor sharp.

Does anyone have an idea of what this combo might be worth? I know, I know . . . I should have pictures, etc. but I don't. I'm hoping someone will know what I'm talking about and be able to give me a general value. I think the guy was asking $225. I'm going back over there this afternoon to make an offer on some Case knives (a 70's clasp knife and a stag 6265 and a red bone 6265) . . .

But I sure liked the look of the fixed blade Western and was hoping for some information.

ACTUALLY, HERE'S A LINK TO A PICTURE . . . a different knife, but the same set . . . http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/5751062

Thanks ! Your question and link answered my question that I posted May 16 . You can view it with pics in the unanswered posts section of this forum listed as "Mystery Knife/Hatchet Combo".I have been asking $200 for mine so I guess that I'm in the correct "ballpark" .

Thanks again , Bob R.
