Here is a Case XX U.S.A. 5 Dot (1975) 6383 Whittler from my collection. The 83 pattern whittler is one of the most sought after of the 70's and back Case knives. It has a pinned shield and nickel silver bolsters and liners. This is back when Case really made a nice knife:thumbup:
This knife is 3 1/2" closed.
This particular example has some only a couple of light patina spots (natural light makes them look worse than they are), but NO pitting and no blade loss or signs of sharpening. All of the blades walk and talk with no blade rub. The bone is well matched for color and has the desirable Cherry Cola Color many CASE Collector seek out. This knife would make a great addition to your collection or a high class EDC. The pictures show some of the things I look for when choosing a whittler such as blade fullness, how well the swedge between the backsprings fits etc.
Overall I would rate this knife as excellent to near mint although I hate to use these subjective type ratings.
$100 Paypal only, no e-checks, fees included and shipped in the U.S.A. International add $15 and accept responsibility once it leaves the U.S.A.
(a great price for one of the most sought after older CASE Patterns)
First one to say they want it by PM, Email, or Post gets it. "I'll take it" supercedes any pending offers, expressions of interest or questions.
