Case XX shipment came in

[SterlingArcher]

My shipment of Case XX knives arrived today. When I bought them I estimated 450 - 500 knives. I like to err on the conservative side with my estimates but I was waaaaay off. A very quick look through saw a mix from pre-dot to late models.

I foresee a lot of sore hands and elbows in my future...

Nice haul.
Lotta trapper pattern it looks like, a few Sodbusters/Sodbuster JR's, at least one large amber bone stockman (CV or Stainless blades?), some medium stockman ...

If any of the carbon steel blades have a patina, think thrice before removing it. A patina helps protect against rust.

I'll sell them. I buy large collections anywhere I can find them and then piece them out one by one. I've learned a ton from this place on cleaning them, leaving vs removing patina, etc. Very knowledgeable people around these parts.
