    The two "back" saws with stiffening spines are intended for exclusive use with miter boxes.

    Auction sites will give you current valuation, which may not be enough to be worthwhile.

    It looks like what you have are two Disston D-8 hand saws and two 24" back saws, a Disston and a Craftsman.
    None are worth very much. If the blades are straight on the D-8's, you might get $5-10.00 for them as-is.
    The back saws are hard to sell, even if they are in good condition. I know this from experience!
