Let's not get too far off track here.

I've re-read several accounts and the only knife mentioned is the one the shooter pulled.

It appears the licensee pulled a knife after being verbally threatened. When the victim wasn't sufficiently impressed with the knife and repeated the threat, the licensee pulled his .357 and shot.

Actually, I fall back on what a high school english teacher drilled into me.

Would they have been individually injured or injured as a group?

From a grammer site I keep bookmarked when I'm in doubt:

There’s a lot of disagreement about this one. “None� can be either singular or plural, depending on the meaning you intend and its context in the sentence. “None of the pie is left� is clearly singular. But “None of the chocolates is left� is widely accepted, as is “None of the chocolates are left.� If it’s not obvious to you which it should be, don’t worry; few of your readers will be certain either.
