Case Tested XX

[2bidnbuy]

Hello
I am looking at a group of Case knives and came across a 3-blade with Case Tested XX on the tang. The guide I use indicates the knife to be in the 1920 -40 era. No dots. I can NOT find the 4 or 5 digit number. I'm guessing it starts with 6 3 _ _ . Nice bone handle. Looking for the year, 4-5 digit number. I can send pic if interested. Cant figure out to do it on this forum.

Thanks

The traditional knife subforum may be a better place for information on a vintage Case XX.

As far as value goes, you should read this.

2bidnbuy, welcome to Bladeforums!

As Blades&Bullets notes, it's against forum rules to ask about value without the proper membership level.
As such, I edited out that request, but I am moving your thread to our Traditional Knives subforum where you may get better intel regarding year and identification number.

sorry about breaking the rules on first time on forum.

If I'm not mistaken he asked about the pattern number not being on the Tang Stamp. I believe it was 1949 when they started the pattern number tang stamp.
