My latest mistake or is it? Opinions please!
I loaded up on the big 2020 Mexico find of new old stock and now having second thoughts. A friend also acquired seven. Not sure if the instruction wrappers are worth anything.

Depends on what your expectations and plans are for the items you bought. Are you a collector or a “flipper”? The papers have value to some collectors as knife ephemera. You can look on eBay sold listings to find how much the papers are worth but I wouldn’t plan my next vacation around the proceeds.
Having the boxes and papers with the knives doesn’t hurt for sure and may be added incentive to some collectors.

Looks like a pretty good haul to me. I'll take one of those "springer" stamped leverlocks off your hands
