Those are a beauty of a pair. They are also the more desirable low key version. I would ballpark them , depending on where you go, from $180.00 to $250.00. A great addition to any collection, or my duty belt lol

Hi Joe:

Are you thinking of "Joe Burrus"--the escapist who died during his buried-alive stunt in Northern Calif.??

Was that the guy with the cement and plexi-glass? That was a real shame.

Kevin, yep, that is/was the guy. A real shame, to say the least.
