From left to right in the lead photo above:
Maher and Grosh fruit/paper knife. Circa probably 1950's or 60's. The blade is tight and the spring is strong. Both sides of the handle are embossed and one side is marked fruit knife and the other side is marked paper knife. Unknown steel. Has patina marks on the blade.
Arpat knife. I do not know the maker, I just know this is a very old looking knife with a nifty little pen-style clip. There is some significant corrosion on it, though. An old novelty.
Victorinox pruning knife. Has been used and has some gunk on the blade. Strong spring and exceedingly sharp. A wonderful and useful knife.
Case rope knife in walnut. Has 7 dots, so that means it was made in 1973 [not 1963, thank you Planterz!]. Very strong spring and in great condition considering the age. Some scattered patina spots on blade. The wood has some nicks here and there but is in good condition. Hard to come by.
Case large hawkbill pruning knife. Has 6 dots, so is from 1974. In excellent condition too. The mirror blade is in great shape, but has some mild spotting. There is a good-size patina spot on the show-side bolster (see photo in comment below). Perfect centering. Super strong spring and nice wooden handles! Not sure exactly what the wood is, but it is virtually flawless (no nicks or cracks) and has a beautiful luster. Hard to come by as well.
Muela slipjoint. This is in great shape and has a nice smooth action. Handle is red and black micarta. The edge is not great on it though, needs sharpening.
Price for the lot: $150 via PayPal Goods & Services, shipped via USPS priority in the US. Only selling as a full lot. I offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee: if you aren't satisfied for any reason, send the knives back within five days for a full refund (you only bear the cost of shipping it back).
I'll be happy to take more photos of any knife upon request.
