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

I spent almost a week on the road "traveling light" with just my Vic Minichamp and my chestnut bone swayback jack. After a few days back home, yesterday we went out for lunch and a hike and I decided to continue the swayback theme by carrying my dark red bone swayback gent. I found this one in a hardware store in a small town in Indiana a few years ago. Typical beautiful Case bone!

A few years ago, when I could get away from my Table at the Oregon Knife Show, sometimes I would stop at the Case Dealer display, and ogle this Barlow!! It had such nice Grade A pearl handles!!
When everyone was packing up at the end of the show, the Case dealer wandered over to my chaotic table waving this knife!! I think it still had my fingerprints on it!! I always pick up some nicer Case knives from him to bring back for my Canadian friends.
He remembered me of course, and made me an offer - about a 35% discount if I recall 😲 , and I couldn't say no!! Still have it!!;)
Some of you eagle-eyes can tell what year it was by the tang stamp!!Case Pearl 1.jpgCase Pearl 2.jpg
