Let's see your Traditional Case knives, old to new.

I think Case are very nice at this price point, but not quite equals with GEC. My Case antique bone barlow went straight back to the factory for warranty work. My new barlow is much better in the fit and finish, but still some wonky edge grinding and a bit of blade play when closed. But at this price I'm very satisfied and hope to pick up a few more Case models....the sowbellys being posted look incredible.
 
Just picked this up at a local knife shop, I absolutely love Case's Chestnut jigged bone!!

Just picked this one up. Good fit and finish. No blade play, no gaps, centered blades, but I noticed where the clip had marks in it from touching the liner on the nick side. It does not touch the liner upon me receiving it. Really a nice example except for the marks. it is a user so it is going straight into my pocket.

I’d love that one with a single clip blade and CV steel.
 
Very happy with these two recent arrivals. Both have centered blades with no play in the open position. I get to have a new Barlow with a clip, and no shield...just took 2 knives to pull it off! :p:D

The blue bone has covers with the same color and jigging as my 6344 stockman, the shield of which matches the Barlow's bolster stamp. Nice. :thumbsup:

The yellow Delrin 2-blade is a nice, solid-feeling knife. That little pen blade ain't so little! I believe I will be carrying this one often. :thumbsup::cool:
