They are all CASE XX (2005), 6207 SS, 2 blade, Orange County Choppers, mini trapper pocket knives.
They needed no cleaning as they are in mint condition.
Out of the 14 total, 13 have the storage tins.
Out of the 14 total, 13 are dated 2005 and 1 is dated 2004.
I took some pictures and here they are.

It is a CASE, single blade pocket knife, with a cap lifter/bottle opener. This particular CASE pocket knife pattern was manufactured by Schrade in the Bridgeport plant. I gave it a minor cleaning, took some pictures and here it is. The last picture is from a 1934 catalog and explains the CASE wire handle/frame patterns. Click on a picture to ENLARGE.

It is a CASE, single blade pocket knife, with a cap lifter/bottle opener. I haven't decided if I'm going to replace the missing blade guard/spacer in the handle. This particular CASE pocket knife pattern was manufactured by Schrade in the Bridgeport Connecticut plant. I gave it a minor cleaning, took some pictures and here it is. The last picture is from a 1934 catalog and explains the three CASE wire handle/frame patterns. Now to find the other two CASE patterns. Click on a picture to ENLARGE.

The owner and his son usually order a few knives to keep in their display. I don't know who they order from, but they're mostly Case and usually have some good deals. I went by there to pick up some silicone sealant & some painters tape, and while there thought I would check out his knives on hand.

Walked out the door with this one. A New in Box, 2019 Case 130th Anniversary CXXX 62009-1/2 Barlow in the Golden Antique Bone. It has the Bomb shield with CXCASEXX stamping & Case CXXX tang stamp. The color of the Bone Got to me. Had to have it. Plus... out the door price was $48.

Nice! You rarely see knives at hardware stores here in my area; and even if you do, they're usually something super-cheap. Farm Bureau (a tiny chain, of about 4-5 stores if I recall) recently dropped Case for Chinese Schrades and True Utility (which are crap). Our local building supply/Ace (who doesn't really carry as much as Ace stores do; focusing on building supply) doesn't have a knife display (and I haven't really browsed the store good enough to see if they had them someplace else--but I've started going there instead of Lowe's), but our local State Electric does have some Klein knives in the tool display behind the counter.

Nicely done Smitty ,that bone is really nice . The in pocket price is great ! Sometimes a trip to the hardware store isn’t all about work stuff .

WOW, great score. The bone got me, and i'm thousands of miles away. I would rather pay $48 for that, than the price of an unattainable brand that shall remain nameless. That my friend is a " Ripper ".

Wow, such beautiful bone for that price...I can't imagine passing it up either (despite not being an 07 or having a Wharncliffe blade). Nice score, Smitty.
