That's the first time l've seen that Case yellow celluloid gas out so badly! That's $46 thrown into the wind.

Perhaps the buyer plans to 'recycle' them with buffed to near mint blades and replaced Case handles. Then the $46+ is an investment.

Interestingly, the buyers name is 1960ROLAND. Did you buy them KJ?
Regardless, those knives are pretty far gone. Buyer is likely facing much more than buffing and rehandle on those.

No it's not me. He's a young feller too. I would be "1946Roland".
I do not have the skills needed to rebuild a knife.
