Both of these were gifts from different BF members. The Case/TB single blade Sowbelly wrapped in Winterbottom Bone scales was won from TTLARbb in a GAW a bunch of years ago and the 1/4” aluminum plate with the Case logo milled into it came from a member I know who asked to remain anonymous.

He made this one too.

Very nice Charlie !

Charlie doesn't have a spreadsheet to keep track of his gorgeous, old knives . . .
he has a spreadsheet to keep track of the storaqe facilities where he keeps them all!

thanks guys!
if you zoom in, you can see a crack in the plastic/composite at the spring pin.. probably came that way from the factory...
I read somewhere that they made a lot of these for the military.

Thought I'd take a few new scans for this thread. One or two of the knives might be in previous pics. This one has from the top, a 6235 1/2, a 6231, a 6231 1/2 and a 6299.

A couple of HJs, and a big Rope knife with a dangerous can opener!!

Post your Tested knives please, fixed blades and folders, 1920 to 1940 only.
Here's my humble little collection of 4 users. Hopefully I can add a few more as the budget allows.

If 'humble' means sensational then you've got it! Very nice collection and a wonderful thread starter

I have no CASE knives near this age but I remain deeply impressed by this thread :thumbsup:

Thanks, Will

The barehead jack is the nicest of my little group, it didn't see a lot of use. Thanks for your comments Will :thumbsup:
