US M3 H. Boker & CO. U.S.A. Trench Knife

[AtticWeasel]

Hi
I am not really a collector of knives and am looking for help on this one. Have learned alot about the M-3 online but cannot find much information on the Boker model. I know it made the fewest, 31,300. The prices I find on the other manufacturers are all over the map but cannot find a Boker.

I am looking to sell and hoping to know its value. Do not want to take anyone to the cleaners but do not want to go there myself.

This knife is blade stamped "U.S. M 3 H. Boker & CO. U.S.A. ". Has the flamming bomb on the pommel. Looks like it was never sharpened but might have been cleaned back in the 50's. It has been stored away ever since.
There is no scabbard but I know there was one when I was a kid.
The handle has 8 washers and is in real good shape for its age. Just a few nicks in the leather nut no cracks. Knife is tight and solid with some but little surface rust. I will try and attach a picture.

Any help in the value would be appreciated.

Thanks
Dan
