OK, I know the appeal of a '63 red ALOX soldier, but what the heck is going on here? ??? [size=-1]US[/size] $455.00 with 7 hours to go? I've seen the same knife/year go for much less. Is it cause of the sheath? or just bidding frenzy?

Not sure how rare these are. Very expensive.
Could never afford that.

That guy has been selling a lot of rare and semi-rare stuff at a pretty big markup from his original purchase prices on eBay. I suggest if you want something rare, try to outbid him the first time.

$550 is way too much for this knife, IMO, esp without the original box. Apollo 11s show up on eBay about once every 2 months (specifically, 13 times in the last 2 years). Almost always NIB, as they were mostly bought as "collector's items". Through early 2011 they typically sold for about $150 each, which is what I (and a couple other members here) paid for them.

In late 2011 prices on these shot up to $300-$350 each and have stayed there since. The most ever paid for one was $500, and that was to a collector in Europe well known for not really having a spending limit on his purchases.

SAK prices have increased significantly in the past couple years - lots of new collectors joining the hobby (places like this and SAKWiki help this a lot). New people = more competition for knives = higher prices. Alox prices have come down a good bit from the insanity of early 2010, but unfortunately 84mm and 91mm prices have done nothing but go up.

They have a loot of good deals if you check out their eBay store. I say black Super Timers, MOP Accountants (w/ long file), many different color Cadets and the black Farmers. I asked them on eBay if they ship to the US. If not, I still might order some things and have them shipped to family in Italia.

You would think they could have given up the 0.14, but no...  I think they priced them in lots of 10.  They just need to adjust their auction again.
