Question about the Case Russlock knives

[zeontestpilot]

Hello, I'm looking at buying/obtaining a Case Russlock knife. I love it's unusual design which gives it character and I prefer one-hand opening blades because of convenience. My question is this, do all Russlocks come with a pocket clip? I've seen images online of Russlocks with and without the pocket clip, but I'm never sure if the photographer took the clip off because they don't it or the Russlock didn't come with one. And if the knife does come without a pocket clip, do all models have an option for the pocket clip, or is it only certain models like the "Worn Bermuda Green Bone"? Don't worry, you don't have the list what models do or don't. I just don't want to order a Russlock expecting a pocket clip and one isn't there.

Thanks in advance.

Very few Russlocks come with a clip. The most surefire way is to check the model number: a 61953L is a normal version (6=bone, 1=# of blades, 953=pattern, L=lock), while a 61953LC is an abomination!

Ha, I figured not too many people like the clip. Though I'm not the big knife collector in the family, that title belongs to my wife. I prefer to use the knife for daily uses, and its a bit of a struggle to find a knife in your pocket sometimes. Plus, if the clip is good, I won't have to worry about losing the knife by it falling out of my pocket.

When I was young, my dad gave me a single blade, non-locking knife where the body was in the shape of a fish. It was probably a dollar store knife, nothing special; but I treasured it.....its lost now, probably fell out of my pocket somewhere. I still wish I had that cheapo knife, cause it meant a lot to me. I just don't want to lose another knife, especially one that I need to save up for.

Thanks VictorKilo for the quick response, I appreciate it!
