Thanks. I was lucky. Motivated seller! That is the price I was quoted. So didn't haggle.
But like yours I have a 1917 LF&C Trench that I picked up last year that was missing the scabbard..Was an estate find and the scabbard was in the house but couldn't be found...I know that finding the scabbard will cost me more than I paid for the knife.

My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

For $50 , you did real well.
That's about what I paid for mine --- 30 years ago.
BTW, Welcome to the forum.

Greetings,
I'm late to this party But yes as stated, it's an original example and an excellent score for the price quoted.
That said, I don't provide values/valuations either (nor share my "fishing holes" for that matter) as it tends to backfire in more ways than one. The online "what's it worth?" crowd tend to bring nothing of value to this (& other) militaria forums and if you satiate their request(s) just once, they become more emboldened/insistent that the members of the forum somehow owe them a pricing service of sorts. Yes, a bit of a long-winded rant, but asking for values on this forum is akin to asking a woman over 25 how old she is, gentlemen just know not to do that
Cheers,
Lance
