It’s not a rare Camillus display . They had a lot of these that went to hardware stores sports shops , department stores ,etc in the 1960 s thru there closing in 2007. Hard to tell in the photos what the tang stamps are and knives look faded. A clear pic or 2 with cover open would help. Condition is everything when value is being discussed.
Check out Camillus collectors r us website and look at the 1970 s thru 90 s catalogs and you will find pics of your display. Then get that stock number and do a eBay search .
Hope that helps.
