Nice Kimber! Is that Officer size?
I have been busy getting some things done the past few days. I toted my 65-69 redbone Mini Trapper the past two days.
Case changed the blade types on this model (6207) in the 1970's, as far as I can tell, keeping the model number, yet going from a clip and pen to a California Clip and Spey blade.
Some say it was called a dogleg jack before the blades changed, not sure I agree with them since it does not have the true dogleg shape.

Nice red bone on this AND today’s Copperhead.
I had this is my pocket when I got another mess of crappie today. Getting ready to go in the kitchen and fry up a plate of them; this time of year I have a one track mind.

Catch a plateful for me!
I like that one even more I think JJ, it certainly pairs beautifully with your vintage CJ Barlow :cool: :thumbsup:

Thank you my friend :) :thumbsup:

I'm just about to hit the hay here in Yorkshire, but heading out for a hike tomorrow :) Have a great Saturday everyone :thumbsup:

Have a great hike, but remember~ no windows or birds!
Will - I try to think back to the Case hardware displays in the 1960's, when I was a kid, and I don't recall them ever calling the knives a pattern name, as we do today, seems like they would have a pattern number above or below the knife in the displays. Many of the old catalogs I have (not Case Catalogs) just show a pattern number and no pattern name. Of course, back then, most everyone knew what a jack knife was and what was a Barlow. Wish I had some older Case catalogs. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😇 Very nice Queen, BTW.

This Cattaraugus knife is a true dogleg pattern, in my opinion and it has a compound curve or, as the old saying goes, is "crooked as a dog's hind leg" 🤣.
Your Queen and the Case 6207 pattern has only one. :

Schrade and Jeff would likely call this a Serpentine Jack, which is not incorrect either. ☺️
Beat me to it!🤙

Top o’ the day to All🤩:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Great choice for Shradeurday, Gus! Is that from the series that also had the trapper called the Miner, or am I mixed up?
 
Not much going on today. It's suppose to start snowing in an hour or so and we're thinking of going to the Brass Rail for supper tonight - lamb steak !! Thought I'd give this Remington Lumberjack a place in my pocket today. It'll come in handy watching NASCAR Xfinity this afternoon.

I hope everyone has a great (and safe) remainder of the 2000's.
