Q blade magazine box discovery

#1

Post by spydercojoe »

Hello all. Haven't been on for a while,,sorry. I have made an interesting discovery and would love some help. I acquired years ago a free Spyderco Q knife , C35SBK with "BLADE" (for Blade magazine) cut out in the blade. I was looking at the box and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw label on the end of the box with the knife's individual number on it with......the name of the knife with a major misspelling.........BLADE MAGEZINE....... is this a rare error , or are all like that? Then of course I would like to know if that pushes the value any higher? I actually have no idea of it's present value. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks. Joe

Not sure a mispelled printing is valued (as for stamps)...

But your knife should be worth around the 100-120$

Am I right?

They're definitely not all like that. I have two, both have serial numbers, one has magazine spelled correctly, one just says BLADE, no magazine. As for value, I'd say Simon's estimate is pretty close. I can tell you for certain the misspelling wouldn't make it any more valuable to me, but I can't speak for every collector.
