looking to find the value of these Trench Knives which I have inherited.

They all have original metal scabbards also.

SP4B........looks like you have some WWI French trench knives. From your photos they look like they are in good shape (no cracks in handles, no rust on blades, tips intact etc..). Not seeing the scabbards (which in some cases are as valuable as the trench knife) I would put the value somewhere in the $175-250 or so per knife. Now, understand the market is down now but there are lots of trench knife collectors out there, some of whom might be interested in purchasing the collection outright. Hope this helps and good luck[^]
