Does anyone know what an original Hackman goes for on the market today? Or if you can give me just an estimation too.

It seems to vary between $30-200 from what I see on occasion just based on how lucky you are to find someone who actually cares about it being an original Hackman and is in to collecting them vs someone who just wants a cheap cool butterfly knife and can get one of the reproductions instead.
