The phrase "honor among thieves" is a proverb that has been around for centuries. It reflects the idea that even those engaged in illegal activities may still have a code of behavior or ethics that they adhere to within their own group, despite their criminal actions.

Could you tell me which is right honor among thieves or no honor among thieves?
Both, Depending of circumstance. In the middle ages outlaws were literally outside the legal system and could be killed by any person. They had no recourse to the courts and could not sue for damages. Thus outlaws, who were often thieves, needed to develop trust among themselves if they were to survive. Criminal gangs formed pacts, agreement or charters among the members specifying their obligations to each other. Hence-"Honor among thieves." However, outlaw gangs often competed with each other, just as gangs do today. Outside society would see outlaws committing violence and theft against other outlaws. Hence, "No honor among thieves." Piracy compacts were the seaborne manifestation of these outlaw compacts. A skeptic might also ask if there is honor among gentlemen or no honor among gentlemen? Presumably, if their is no honor at least one of the men is not a gentlemen. But it really depends more on the individual than the class to which they belong--thieves or gentlemen.
