Gerber boot knives

I have a couple of Gerber knives that I purchased back in the 80's. I believe they were sold as "boot knives". Both have black handles, Im assuming some kind of thermo plastic. They are very hard. Both have double edged blades, not sure what kind of steel. The smaller blade is about 4 inches and has a leather sheath with a boot clip. The larger one is about 7 inches and also has a leather sheath. I'm trying to find out their value for possible sale because I don't use them anymore. I wish I could post a picture, but I don't know how. Thanks for any info.

I took four of those off a Mexican once. Two in each boot. He went to jail, knives to evidence room. That was a long time ago, they're all probably destroyed by now.
 
Carried a Mark II on my LBE during Desert Storm, it never left the sheath.... A young infantry guy has a strong need for a good sized sticker... Traded it for some Iraqi money, still have it.

Oh, handle is aluminum.
 
I have 1 the smaller gerber commands and also a larger mark II.
Got them from a gun store that was going out of biz back in the early 80's.
Mouse chewed on 1 of the sheaths but I can't remember which 1 now.
Maybe I can con my wife to bringing them tomorrow when she comes to visit.
