            REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Plan Committee of the CLARCOR 401(k) Plan

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
of the CLARCOR 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2004, and the related
statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended
December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 2004, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
year ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held at end of
year as of December 31, 2004 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis
and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the
Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

1.  DESCRIPTION OF PLAN    The following brief description of the CLARCOR Inc.
                           (the "Company") 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") is provided
                           for general information purposes only. Participants
                           should refer to the Summary Plan Description for a
                           more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

    GENERAL                The Plan is a defined contribution plan established
                           January 1, 2004, which covers eligible domestic
                           employees of the Company who have three months of
                           service and are 21 or older, and who are not
                           continuing participation in the CLARCOR Inc. Pension
                           Plan effective January 1, 2004. The Plan is subject
                           to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
                           Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

                           Each year, participants may contribute up to 50% of
                           pretax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan,
                           up to the Internal Revenue Code limitations.
                           Participants may also contribute amounts representing
                           distributions from other qualified defined benefit or
                           defined contribution plans. The Company contributes
                           100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next 2% of pretax
                           compensation that a participant contributes to the
                           Plan.

    PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS   Each participant's account is credited with the
                           participant's contribution and allocations of the
                           Company's contributions and Plan earnings.
                           Allocations are based on participant account
                           balances, as defined. The only benefit to which a
                           participant is entitled is the benefit that can be
                           provided from the participant's vested account.
                           Participants direct the investment of their
                           contributions into various investment options offered
                           by the Plan. The Plan currently offers a
                           common/collective trust, Company common stock and 11
                           mutual funds as investment options for participants.

 

                                                                               6


                                                             CLARCOR 401(K) PLAN


                                                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

================================================================================

    VESTING                As this is a safe harbor match plan, participants are
                           immediately vested in their contributions and the
                           Company's match, plus actual earnings thereon.

    PARTICIPANT LOANS      Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum
                           of $1,000 and participants may have only one loan
                           outstanding. Loans are repaid through payroll
                           deductions with principal and interest being credited
                           to the participants' account balances. Loans may not
                           exceed the lesser of 50% of the participant's vested
                           balance or $50,000 and loans are to be repaid over a
                           period of time not to exceed five years, unless used
                           for the purchase of a principal residence, in which
                           case the payback period may not exceed 15 years. The
                           loans are secured by the balance in the participant's
                           account and bear interest at the prime rate plus 2%
                           at the time of the loan.

    PAYMENT OF BENEFITS    Upon termination of service, death, disability or
                           retirement, participants, or their beneficiaries,
                           will receive lump-sum benefit payments. Benefits paid
                           are equal to the value of the participant's vested
                           interest in his or her account.

                           Subject to certain provisions specified in the Plan
                           agreement, employed participants may withdraw their
                           after-tax contributions and related earnings.
                           Withdrawals from the Plan may also be made upon
                           circumstances of financial hardship in accordance
                           with provisions specified in the Plan.

    FORFEITED ACCOUNTS     Forfeitures are used to reduce future Company
                           contributions. This Plan was established January 1,
                           2004, and no forfeitures were used to reduce 2004
                           Company contributions.

    ADMINISTRATIVE

================================================================================


2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
    ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    BASIS OF ACCOUNTING    The financial statements of the Plan are prepared
                           under the accrual method of accounting.

    USE OF ESTIMATES       The preparation of financial statements in conformity
                           with generally accepted accounting principles
                           requires Plan management to make estimates and
                           assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net
                           assets available for benefits at the date of the
                           financial statements and the changes in net assets
                           available for benefits during the reporting period
                           and, when applicable, disclosure of contingent assets
                           and liabilities at the date of the financial
                           statements. Actual results could differ from those
                           estimates.

    RISKS AND 
    UNCERTAINTIES          The Plan provides for various investment options in
                           any combination of stocks, bonds, fixed income
                           securities, mutual funds and other investment
                           securities. Investment securities are exposed to
                           various risks, such as interest rate, market
                           valuation and credit risks. Due to the level of risk
                           associated with certain investment securities and the
                           level of uncertainty related to changes in the value
                           of investment securities, it is at least reasonably
                           possible that changes in risks could materially
                           affect participants' account balances and the amounts
                           reported in the statement of net assets available for
                           benefits and the statement of changes in net assets
                           available for benefits. Individual participants'
                           accounts bear the risk of loss resulting from
                           fluctuations in fund values.

    INVESTMENT VALUATION   The Plan's investments are stated at fair value.
                           Quoted market prices are used to value investments.
                           Shares of mutual funds and shares of the
                           common/collective trust are valued at the net asset
                           value of shares or units held by the Plan at year
                           end. The Company common stock fund is valued at the
                           year end unit closing price, based on the quoted
                           market price of the Company common stock plus
                           uninvested cash. Participant loans are valued at cost
                           which approximates fair value.


    PAYMENT OF BENEFITS    Benefits are recorded when paid.

                                                                               8


3.  SIGNIFICANT
    INVESTMENTS            The fair value of individual investments that
                           represent 5% or more of the Plan's net assets are as
                           follows:

4.  RELATED-PARTY
    TRANSACTIONS           The Plan invests in shares of mutual funds managed by
                           an affiliate of Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company.
                           Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company acts as trustee for
                           only those investments as defined by the Plan.
                           Transactions in such investments qualify as
                           party-in-interest transactions which are exempt from
                           the prohibited transaction rules.

                           CLARCOR Inc. common stock fund contains shares of
                           common stock issued by the Company. The Company is
                           the plan sponsor as defined by the Plan and,
                           therefore, these transactions qualify as
                           party-in-interest.

5.  TRANSFERS IN           Transfers In are comprised of $46,227,506 from the
                           CLARCOR 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan, $4,273,722
                           conversion from the United EFP 401(k) Plan, and
                           reclassifications of ($101,272).

6.  PLAN TERMINATION       Although it has not expressed any intent to do so,
                           the Company has the right under the Plan to
                           discontinue its contributions at any time and to
                           terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of
                           ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants
                           will become 100% vested in their employer
                           contributions.

7.  TAX STATUS             On June 4, 2004, a request was filed with The
                           Internal Revenue Service to determine that the Plan
                           and related trust is designed in accordance with
                           applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code
                           ("IRC"). The Plan Administrator and the Plan's tax
                           counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is
                           currently being operated in compliance with the
                           applicable requirements of the IRC.


                                                                               9
