My 99th Case knife and my first Texas Jack - Amber bone and CV. Seems like a handy pattern.

It took almost 100 Case knives for you to get a Texas Jack?
I hope you're enjoying it, it's a good pattern and a handsome knife.

Just got this one,really mint never used or sharpened. 8 dot,not sure of the wood though. Would this be pakkawood? Really pleased with this one,walk'n'talk is excellent and fit'n'finish is what you'd expect from an 70's Case. Don't think I'll be able to keep it outta my pocket.

Just posted this in the "Illegible tang stamp" thread in response to a comment about changes in the same model of knife over the years. Thought I might as well put it in the 'Old to new Case" place as well. Two Case mini-copperheads - top is 2005, bottom is 1976.

Looks as if virtually every part has been changed slightly.

An update from my post No.2912........with a story.

I mentioned I love Case knives, but they are very expensive in the UK compared to what you guys in the US pay.
Member "Hornetguy" (Drew) asked me to send him an email, which I did.
He asked for my address, as he was going to send me a new Case Canoe which he didn't really use (Canoe and Stockmans being my favourite patterns). He refused any form of payment even for postage, bearing in mind he'd be shipping it all the way from Texas to the UK!

Some days later when the package arrived, I was surprised to see an additional knife as well!!. A Case toothpick Damascus (I've never owned a Damascus knife before).
I cannot say how grateful I am to Drew, and it shows just how kind & thoughtful some people / members are.
Excuse my pics (which suck compared to the fabulous ones you guys manage - I really need to improve!!)

@Drew - you are a star, and I wanted everyone on here to know that.
Thanks again.
