Spend a few days checking ebay, you will get a pretty good idea of the market for those. Be sure and check "completed listings" in your searches.

Well Craig, with eBay the way it's been lately, "value" has become very difficult to assess. But, I'd say roughly $250, $225, ????, $125, $50, $70. Not at all familiar with the prices being gotten for C50 Cento's so won't venture an opinion on that one. The others are what I would consider fair asking prices if I wanted to sell, or fair purchase price if I wanted to buy. Am sure there will be other opinions.

The C50 PE has been going nuts lately...comparitive to past prices. JD is probably the best informed on its value because I happen to know he is pursuing it lately. I'm guessing roughly 130...maybe more.
Follow the mushin, but pay it no heed.

Blue PE Spyderhawk & C-50 are sleepers about to awake

I agree with Deacon on every price except the blue PE Spyderhawk. I sold one of them not too long ago for $232. So I guess you just need to find a collector that wants it that bad. I have seen the SE Spyderhawks get the amount he has listed. Now the C-50 Centofante II I just recently sold one for $125. I think I could have held out for more but it was a guy who has traded with me several times so I didn't try for any more.

I think that C-50 is really going to sneak up on people and will be a $200 knife in the next year or so. Now I have seen the plain edge Remote Release go for as high as $100. But the serrated ones probably won't get over $50. The sheepsfoot version is sure getting tough to locate in the last year.

Now I'm not saying that I could get that much for another blue PE Spyderhawk but I do think that knife will fetch between $175 to $195 consistently. But all of this is subject to change to the high or low side. The market for Spyders fluctuates more than the NASDAQ now a days.
Long Live the SPYDEREDGE Spyderco Hawkbills RULE!!

I sold a Ti Lum for 275.00 not long ago and a C-50 just sold for 180.00 on the bay. All of the Lums will go up here soon once people come to understand there will be no more Lums.
