I won a CASE 91210 1/2 single blade and a military type PRESTO "Commando" with black steel handles at an auction. Will anyone help me with realistic values for the two knives?. The CASE is the nicer of the two. It has not been sharpened, but has some light stains and spotting. It works as it should. The PRESTO "Commando" has been lightly sharpened and is rusty all over. I think it can be improved some what with a careful cleaning.

Re: Realistic value for two switchblade knives
Price and Zalesky have the Case listed mint at $850 and that Presto with a blade etch is probably the best one I've ever seen. But the only way to know what they're worth for sure is to put them up for sale and see what you get. eBay is the easiest way to sell, but maybe not the best.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Realistic value for two switchblade knives
The Presto is in fair condition so not very much... it`s the most common of them, maybe 100.00 and the Case would be subject to the rite place and time could go 4/500.00 to a collector that needed or just wanted that specific knife, 250/300 would be about what ive seen them sell for in the past few years. As posted above …. its worth what someone would pay

Thanks for everyone's comments. The Case 91210 1/2 brought $400.00 on ebay and I sold the Presto at a gunshow for $250.00.
