Question about knife selling

**Cyo** · December 25th, 2008, 09:28 PM

Where is the best place to sell a rare/collectible knife? I've sold some Randalls on eBay, but now I'm considering selling an Ed Fowler knife I've had for a number of years. I'm not sure eBay is a good venue to sell such a knife but I've had no experience with other ways of selling such things. The few places I've seen on line seem to be mostly dealers and I'm not going to sell it at a dealer's buy price.

Suggestions?

Blade Forums is a great place, I've bought many knives there over the years. You'll need a membership to sell there though. Knifeforums is a cool site too, I've bought and sold there a bunch of times. Blade Forums might be the better place for a real expensive piece. However, if you're a brand new member you may have trouble selling an expensive knife & getting top dollar.

How expensive is the knife you're selling? EBay might be your best bet. I've sold knives there and never felt like I left any money on the table. The knives I sold there were all < $100. though.
