I wasn't aware that Case made wharncliffe trappers with such nice handle scales. Most of the ones I've seen had some funky looking smooth bone that had been dyed bright orange, red, blue, or lime green. Beautiful knife you've got there.
 
As usual since this spring I carry my Medium Case stockman with cw. But today I also carry a Case trapper ss. The authumn is comming starting with moosehunt next week and the feeling of a larger knife gives me a free feeling trapped here at work.

Winterbottom :confused: .... I think I used to get cases of that when I was a child from having to use the outhouse. :p That aside, it's a cool old knife. :thumbup::cool:
 
Today I've got a Schatt & Morgan Cotton Sampler in worm grooved moss green bone. To my eye there is no hint of green.
 
Surely Delrin wouldn't crack like that around the pin?

Oh yeah, today CASE Humpback Stockman in Harvest Bone

Looks like delrin to me. :confused: I say that because I have a whittler in the same scales and it seems to be delrin.

Yes it is true, it's delrin, but for some reason the scale/pattern is still called Winterbottom Bone IIRC so I just out of habit call the jigging:D Winter.... well ya get my drift anyway.:)
 
Whether it is bone or delrin it just LOOKS old and cool.

3 bucks? Not around here that I know of!

It's a tad smaller than a peanut. Each blade is 1 7/8 inch. The opened length is ~ 4 1/4 inch. Frickin engineering company went and wrote a spec for how big a knife I could carry and they got a bit carried away with themselves. Blade not longer than 2". Opened length no more than 4 1/2". It's that second requirement that is hard to meet.

Thanks. I do enjoy the scales. And it does all the jobs a knife has to perform on a cube farm. Open goody bags, cut tape, open boxes and packages, peel apples. I have several knives that meet the spec. One of them was gifted to me by David (Yay I like Pie). I'm still looking for an appropriate counter gift. But of the knives I can legally carry at work, I like this Case the best.
