Difficult to estimate its value in that I have never seen one like it before, but I do have a mirror of similar style and design. I would place it's value around $150 to $200.

That's a really nice looking knife. I'm not sure of the market value though. Interestingly there were just three baseball pocket knives that closed on eBay about the same vintage....although yours is nicer in my opinion....link below. I had them in my watch list and was considering bidding but didn't. My thought was it would be cool to display the three together. Recently at an antiques show I saw a similiar knife with boxers on each side...I think it was around $100.00 if I recall. I see antique sports pocket knives now and then...I think I've got a tennis one....yours is a step or three above the sports knives I usually see...plus it's baseball, king of sports collectibles

I think $150 - $200 is a good estimate, too. Perhaps a tad higher, if you were able to get it into a Catalogue Auction.
