I love when Case does those lined bolsters like that they always do a good job with it.

I always forget, but I think that's called coined bolsters ?
I don't really know much about various bolster related terms because all my knives have plain bolsters.

'Threaded bolsters' I think :thumbsup:

Coining is done to the liners :)

I agree :)
This is what they called the bolsters in a description I’ve found.
Case XX Select 2021 Collection Knife Features a Genuine Mother-of-Pearl handle, Tru-Sharp surgical steel blades, nickel silver components, satin finished springs, and quad strike lines on the bolsters. The main blade on each of these collectables features Case XX Select artwork and an exclusive Case XX Select tang stamp.

No more than 250 pieces of each pattern will be produced. These knives are available exclusively at Case XX Select Dealers.

Made in USA

Could also be called threaded bolsters as Jack said also . But Im honestly not for sure if it’s correct description:)

That's all I've ever known them as :) Cutlers use a 'thread' or 'threading tool' to put the lines into the soft nickel silver. I watched Stan Shaw do it many times. Of course it could be a tomAYto/tomARto thing! :D I don't think it is though ;) Dealers and distributors frequently misname all sorts of details, from blade shapes to actual patterns (something Case have also done) :thumbsup:

Just what I needed, thanks.

The threaded bolsters Case does always looks nice.
It seems to often be limited when they do it, but I think they do threaded bolsters on the Canoe in a normal capacity.

Fine looking example, the lined bolsters work very well with a Copperhead front bolster, but it's the Bone and Diamond shield that's particularly noteworthy. What is that bone please ? Is this a Mini Copperlock or full size one ?

Thanks, Will

Hey Will, it’s a mini with purple jigged.

All the best, Greg
