Seriously put it on your belt and enjoy it. They don't make them quite like that anymore. A knife is ment to be used not stuffed in a glass box to oohhhh and aaahhhh at. Even if it were the history value of it to you would be worth alot more than what anybody could pay you in my estimation.
Heres an idea. Make an effor this year to kill one of every legal animal just to skin them and butcher them with it. Then after you have taken every possible legal north American game and used it to dress them out THEN wipe it down with a good amount of 3-in-1 household oil and store it in the back of the cabinet again with a book. Inside the book take a picture of the knife before you start and tell the history of it. Then take a picture of each animal you clean with it, and pictures of your family enjoying the food they provide with a detailed story about each hunt. Now when your kids get it passed on to them it will be a REAL treasure. Just make sure its in your will they have to do the same thing with it at least once.
My 2 cents.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
