Like Randy said, there are lots of forgeries floating about so be prepared for disappointment.
However, you should do some research first. If you send me the photos, I'll dig up some websites for you to look at. If there are any marks, engravings make sure you get good closeups. Hallmarks, any details of the handle are extremely important as well.
