Check Overstock.com for "case lots." You might find 6, 8, 10 or 12 knives packed in a plain cardboard box for stores that will put them in a display case.
I got a huge discount on a 6-pack of fixed blade knives that my son gave to the adults that had inspired him on the road to Eagle Scout. .

Engraving can get expensive, and a "specialty" engraver is hard to find.

Many jewelers only do tiny writing and cost a fortune.
Most trophy shops only want to engrave flat aluminum plates......

Look for an "industrial engraver" who can handle a 3-D surface like a knife blade; they are also reasonably priced.

I have "Bowman's Enterprises" on speed dial. They have done amazing engraving for me, including a black powder rifle barrel, a canteen cup and laser engraving a powder horn.

Unfortunately, they are in Huntsville, Alabama. If you have a couple of weeks, it might be worth mailing it to them!

To be cost effective you should consider laser engraving. PM me if you need that and I can point you to a couple contacts.
