Stroud Auctions

Interested to see how high people will bid. The most recent auctions across the country have shown people bidding above equivalent items on classifieds websites, even before adding the ~30% fees on top.

Even stranger, people buy blind from auctions when at Armsfairs. they can handle and pay less.
I proved this recently.
I offered a BSA underlever at KP for £165, expecting to sell it for £150. After a few tyre kickers, I gave it to an Auctioneer and received £160 2 months later.

Nowt stranger than Collectors

Have at look at the Chris Reeve Knife 352.
Some would say it was over valued, and others undervalued. I suspect the former as collectors demand mint, and it is late production. Things in the knife world have moved on since these were made. They once sold retail for £225.

RWS Superdomes are always worth buying if the price is nice and low.

Always fun.

I seem to remember a review at the time that said yes they were bombproof, but those Chris Reeve knives were not actually very good to use for any length of time

I guess 98% of them are drawer queens so it wouldn’t matter
