Hello new guy here joined cause I have always loved a good knife but doesn’t everyone. The other reason is that my favorite camp/bush knife had the handles break and I'm trying to figure out what to replace them with. First a little history about this knife I picked it up at a yard sale in Germany when I was stationed there in 99 I payed like 2 deuch marks for it came home with me. I never really paid much attention to who made it or where it came from it had good steel held a razors edge I was happy. So when I went hunting today for handle material I typed in the only name on the blade It was Case Xx ok so now I know that it is a Original v44:eek: and all that that means. so Yes I'm kicking myself for treating it the way I have over the years.:( But I still need new handles for it Any sujestions would be great. I don’t really have the skills to carve new ones I was thinking about a leather/ Para cord wrap combo I will post pics when I get home thanks again:)
 
welcome to the forums.
post up a pic of the knife and the broken handle, so folks have a better idea of how it broke and can gear their advice that way. (slab handles versus stacked leather washers)
otherwise, you might look up Case online and send them an email to see if they offer a repair service.

it's real tough posting pics from a different forum.
you might try reviewing the maintenance forum here or search for a handle scale thread.
