Case commemoratives . need help pricing

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

heres a few pictures of a Custer & CrazyHorse
Geoff Bodine , Buffalo Hunter and a End of the trail set. I got these in trade with a Winchester model 37 Red letter 5 knife set for a rifle. Going to sell, just need any info on value for each.

I'd gather as much info off of the boxes that I could (item numbers) and call Case to see if the customizations were done at the factory or if they were changed after Case sold them. If they were done at the Case Factory, not only would they probably be worth more, but they might be able to tell you how many were produced. If not, the organization that gave them away (or sold them) would be the only ones that would know. Value is largely going to be determined by how much interest there is in that particular set of knives. It may be highest in the area near that organization too.
