1904 - 1984 Schrade Cutlery Question

Schrade Cutlery Company was founded in 1904 by George Schrade, and his brothers Jacob and William Schrade. In 1946 Imperial Knife Associated Companies, (IKAC; an association of Ulster Knife Co and Imperial Knife Co) purchased controlling interest in Schrade Cut Co and changed the name to Schrade Walden Cutlery. In 1973 the name was changed to Schrade Cutlery. In 2004 Schrade closed due to bankruptcy.

Hello All
Was wondering if anyone could give me some history approximate values of these two knives. I have a friend that is looking to sell them. Thanks.

Unfortunately for the seller some schrades don't fetch alot , the 280 for example is a real nice knife IMO and can be bought relatively cheap, maybe some buyers aren't aware of the size or the fancy backsprings as i don't often see photo's that properly describe it's finer points.......all good news for the collector though.....
