I'm not a pro at this but I would start by searching eBay for similar products.

Answer 3

Cub Scout and Boy Scout knives are still made and have changed little in appearance since they started selling them. Some may have a little collector value but condition will be the main thing.

There are plenty of books about pocket knife collecting and there probably is a book just on Boyscout/Cubscout knives alone. You may be able to find pictures and current cost of these knives by contacting Cubscouts/Boyscouts of America and get their catalogue or check on  line.

Boyscouts have been around since around 1900 but I am not sure how long Cubscouts have been around. I know they have been around since at least the late 1950's.

Good luck on your search.

Answer 4

I am an eBay addict and a knife addict. I have come across your knife before and I do research before I buy knives. Usually I Google a description of what I am looking for and choose the Images search to find a photo of something similar. Then I check out the website that has it displayed. By the way, the Camillus Cub Scout knife has been produced for a long time. They are mainly the same basic knife with some handle variations and tang stamp variations. When you say it is 60 years old, how do you really know that? Is it just a guess or do you have proof? 60 years would put your knife being made just after the 2nd World War in the late 1940's. Just wondering because I have seen many modern knives mistaken for being old.
