Good morning gentleman, hoping to get some help. If I'm in the wrong spot, please direct me where I should be. There is one ZT Folder with a box, it looks brand new as well.

My father-in-law passed about 3 years ago, has a couple dozen old Case knives in boxes, the ones I opened are new so they prob all are. These knives have to be more than 15 years old because he became ill and I know he wasn't buying knives. My mother-outlaw asked if I could get rid of them as she needs/wants the money.
Would one of you guys be able to help me evaluate their worth if I sent you some pics ? I'll try to make it as painless as possible.

I'm not a Case guy or I'd buy them myself. Thanks guys.
 
You could post pics in this thread directly from your computer. The more eyes that see the knives the better your chances are of getting good valuations.

Wasn't for sure if that was cool.
The knives are over at my MIL house, I'll get over there this weekend, take some pics and get model numbers and post here on this thread.

Thanks guys.
 
I took pics but I dont know if it's cool to just start posting pics of knives and asking their worth for me to sell. I don't see any threads doing this so I'm going to have to go about it another way. Tried looking this stuff up on the interweb but all of them are discontinued and I cannot find the value.

You paid for a Gold membership, that means you get to ask for dollar values. Whether you choose to sell the knives or not is up to you. It's not uncommon for people to ask for dollar values for knives they intend to sell, and there's nothing wrong with doing so.

You also paid for the right to sell knives on Bladeforums, so you're in the clear both ways. Just don't post a "For Sale" thread or any asking prices here in General Discussion. Save that for The Exchange.

There are people here who might know of resources for researching the dollar values of knives that you don't know about. You have nothing to lose by posting pics and asking. But it's up to you.
 
ok then, here goes a few.

That was just a few of the Case, there are more but all that I took pics of yesterday.

Here is the ZT.

Several Zero Tolerance 0350BW's have sold on ebay in 2023. If you do a search on ebay for "Zero Tolerance 0350BW", and scroll down the left side of the screen and click the "sold items" box you will see what a number of 0350BW's have sold for. They sold for between $95 and $140.

And a ZT 0350BW sold on Arizona Customs in July of this year for $125 (with box and papers, described as having some scuffs and scratches).

Between the ebay "sold item" listings and Arizona Customs I'd say you can get a pretty good idea of what ZT 0350BW's are currently selling for.
 
This knife (below) is a Case Russlock model# R51953L SS with red stag handles (just like it says on the box), with "worked" bolsters. One just like it sold recently on ebay for $192.39.

This next knife is pictured with the wrong box. It isn't a Cheetah model, it's another Russlock, model 61953L SS with "bomb" handle shield, "Limited Edition". Not so rare actually. I see that those have sold between $50 and $80.

That sounds about right to me on the ZT0350BW or just about any ZT0350, except for maybe the CB.
 
Thanks Killgar, sent the ZT off this morning.
Thanks for the Case evaluations too, no telling why the knife was in the wrong box, I seen a bunch of empty boxes, I bet I find it there.

sgt1372, thanks
