All About Pocket Knives

"The Apache TA454B Folding, Lock Blade Pocket Knife.
The Apache by Frost Cutlery. Very nice, foldable lock-blade, black with belt clip.
Apache Cutlery foldable belt knife with black plastic handles and metal belt clip. Overall, the knife length
is around 7 1/2"" while its knife blade is about 3 1/4"" Lower section of the knife blade is jagged while the
upper section of the knife blade is smooth and sharp. The knife blade is Stainless. Made in China. No box"

I would like to ask a question as follows:
What is the handle material rubber, plastic, etc.?
Thank you for your assistance in this request
Regards,
Robert Knarr

Same answer as with other knives: type of plastic is unknown and of zero significance. Lower end pre-owned China knives might sell at $5 at a flea market.

Questions about value occasionally get asked and answered because unlike some other forums AAPK doesn't have strict rules against those kinds of posts but you are stretching the limits. A search in the "Advanced" recently sold section of eBay is your best source for current values.

Thank you, Jerry. I was trying to figure out how to say that.
Buy some books, learn how to check eBay, get into this addiction that we all enjoy so much.

I think Jerry and Ray have pretty much said out everybody here feels.
Don't be surprised if no one answers the next post you make of a cheap imported knife.

We have been very patient answering your questions. I just spent 45 minutes answering your question on the Gerber LST and researching the prices for you. That's fine to do it occasionally but as Jerry said we are not an appraisal service. You really need to learn how to do this yourself.

I don't know if you have inherited a collection and are trying to sell them or what, but if you want someone to give you an appraisal there are people who do this. Probably the most well known is Bernard Levine; http://www.knife-expert.com/ his email address is on his website and I know he offers an appraisal service for knives. Just a tip though, don't waste your money on having him appraise a bunch of knives made in China or Pakistan. Unless they are 100+ years old they are probably not even worth his appraisal fee.
