Shoe box full of Spydercos
Shoe box full of Spydercos
Good evening all , Joined up tonight looking to get some info on some knives I acquired today in trade . I had a shoe box of spydercos handed to me in trade for a Marlin 44mag lever gun . I do collect knives but mostly WW1/WW2 edged weapons. I do not collect spydercos although I do love them and have a few I rotate out for daily use and carry , today I apparently became a collector of them . I plan on holding onto these so value is not really an issue but would be nice to know so I don't toss my son a $300 pocket knife , looking for some history mainly. My father has claimed a few of these already and my son (16) has been developing a fondness for sharp and pointy things and eyeing a few of these up . Any info would be greatly appreciated .

Welcome to the forum, Great looking collection for sure, no $300 pieces in there but definitely $100-$150 on some.
Happy to be part of this great forum and group of down to earth spyderco addicts, Thanks Sal and gang.

Re: Shoe box full of Spydercos
Nice vintage collection there.
Probably the rarest are the Vesuvius and Viele (probably in the $125-150 range NIB); the Herbst ($100-150 NIB); and the Impala and C25 Centofante (~$125 NIB). If used, they're probably worth quite a bit less. Nothing in there is so rare and expensive that I would avoid using them if you feel like it.

Holy Spyders Batman!!! :D Dude you have me so green with envy I don't even know what to say :o But there are about 3 of those that I would roll over and do dog tricks for :D An even up trade for a lever action rifle was really nice on your end for sure. Actually you made out like a very prosperous bandit :rolleyes: >> again I envy you greatly and by the way congratulations because trades like that don't happen very often. :spyder:

Welcome! That's a nice collection you got there, I'm jealous. :spyder:
I know what models some of those are. I don't know how much they'd sell for today, but if you like I can tell you the names of the ones I know and you can search eBay to see what the average selling price is.
