Blue Ridge Knives, Smyth County Va.
They are wholesalers, so you would not get market retail; but it would be a quick sale.

Vintage Case are quite valuable, dont let anyone low ball you.
If you have the time, do your research; if you just want to get rid of them for a fraction of what they are worth, Blue Ridge is a reputable buyer that won't rip you off.

I would ask you to send me a list of what you have, but I can't afford them.
Well, ok then, if you want, send me a list.

And - Gibson Auction in Orange Va. is apparently getting ready to post a knife auction.

https://gibsonauction.com/upcoming-auctions/

I bet they would add your knives to the lot.
Not sure what you would get through this auction - Gibson is not great at widely advertising or marketing their auctions. I only know of them because I drive by the auction house occasionally.

I would have to disagree. Gibson does a good job advertising. They really push things online. We have used them several times to sell surplus equipment and have always been pleased with them. I know Bryan and Ryan personally and consider them to be friends. You will not go wrong using gibson auction.

Yeah, I can see that was a bit convoluted.
What I meant -
Blue Ridge is a wholesaler. Therefore, they will only pay you the wholesale value of the knives. It will be a fair offer. But, selling to a wholesaler will net you much less than selling them at retail value on Ebay.

You know, like selling a gun to a dealer.
A dealer will only pay you a fraction of what the gun is worth on the open market, but that doesn't mean they are ripping you off.

But I'm thinking you already know all of this.

Very Good! I have bought a couple of guns from them. And a bathtub.
I check their site every day to see if they have posted the knife auction yet.
