Case Tested (1920-1940) Splitback Whittler —$125 SOLD
3 1/2" closed. Jigged synthetic "Rough Black" handles. Blades are mostly full with some pepper spots and very light pitting in a few spots. Nice pull and snap on main blade; secondary pen has softer snap; secondary small clip point opens and closes smoothly but has very soft/almost no snap. All three blades are nice and tight, no wiggle.
Case XX (1940-1964) Splitback Whittler 6308 — $115
3 1/4" closed. Jigged red bone handles with a nice smooth worn feel. Blades are mostly full with some pepper spots and scratches, main blade shows some sharpening wear near the tip (looks to be slightly rounded up). Nice snappy action on all blades, everything is tight, no wiggle.
Case Half Whittler 6208, 8-dot (1972) — $90
3 1/4" closed. Jigged synthetic dark brown handles. Blades are full with some light pepper spots, main blade doesn't appear to have been sharpened at all from what I can tell, pen blade has a slightly rounded tip but still looks mostly full. Nice snappy action on both blades, pen blade has a fairly strong pull (I'd call it an 8.5).
(More in next post.)
