NKCA Case Cattle knife from 1987!!
Nostalgic tang stamp 1 of 7000 NKCA club knives!! Not the best era for Case; the parts were tumble finished, blades had odd grinds!! The knives were quite "squared off" and chunky/blocky!! They have gotten better lately!! Still a useful knife, if not the beauty of the XX period!!

I had one of those for a while and ended up trading it away; should have kept it as I like cattle knives. Those sure do appear to look like a Camillus manufactured knife.

Absolutely love the color on that one.

Thank you very much.

Good morning BF!
Hope y'all had a great weekend!

Just broke out the Dead Reckon 'Ridgeback' integral for a down & dirty Monday morning EDC. ***Of special note, the pivot lockup is IMO the strongest currently available for a folding knife, it's outstanding***

I still dislike the Pocket Clip, very poor design.
So, I'm still on the lookout for a replacement, open to any/all suggestions***

Have a knife day.

For sure, that will absolutely be the best option, at least until a replacement PC is available!!

Beautiful knife and priceless.

Beautiful knife and priceless.

Absolutely! It looked a lot worse than that before I cleaned up it up a bit. My grandpa has been passed away for around 20 years now, but obviously a sentimental keeper! Thanks for the compliment.

And, you can use them in salads (leaves and flowers are eatable) plus you can dry the tap roots, then use them to make a "healthy" caffeine free tea.
(I suppose you could add a 200mg caffeine tablet to each cup to get the necessary for "life" vitamin caffeine.)

A true treasure with all the memories that go with it. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Steve.
I will pass that info to the wife. She keeps talking about making salads but didn’t know about the roots.

Nice little Jack knife, Tko!!!
Some years ago, a small group of collectors referred to your handles and mine as "Yellow Bone", because of the strong underlying color!! Mine is from later in the "Tested" period, late 1930s and yours is an early XX - 1940s!!

Wow, thank you for that information! I never realized the knife was THAT old! That's a beauty you've got there yourself as well.
