I did some initial searching but I'm not sure if it's correct. I think it's a buck tool of some sort. I don't know the real name.
Is this rare or collectible? If yes, what is its worth? Thanks

As it says on the handle, it is a MiniBuck 350 made by Buck Knives. Quite a small MT. Not common, but not super rare. Now if you had a black version everyone would be knocking down your door trying to buy it.
Value would depend on condition and how badly someone wants it. Recent sales on eBay sold for between $13.50 and $54.99

I could blackify it, but it would probably lose some of it's hardness properties. The small springs that give the handles the detent-points when they are folded out or in, tend to fall out of it sometimes. This leaves the handles feeling a bit flippy-floppy.

I have a several of these, and they all feel quite delicate, almost to the point of being flimsy. The mechanism seems to be not quite robust enough for use as a tool, and consequently I much prefer my LM Squirt P4 for a small pocket tool.
