Photos Whats your favorite Case pattern?

I do admire the Norfolk, but for a two bladed single spring knife, the Muskrat collab gets my vote.

Old Greeny!! While I have a few Minty old Case knives, and some killer Harness Jacks, I carried this old Case Tested 6347 1/2 for years!! Always faithful and snappy - kept a nice edge on all the blades. It had a crack in the handle, so I never worried much about it, but it served me well. I hope the person I gave it to some years back is still using it!! A fine knife!!

Waynorth, that green bone is out of this world.

"Whats your favorite Case pattern?"
- When I think of Case, Peanut jumps to mind. When I think if Peanuts, Case jumps to mind...
- Then there was (Scrimshaw) Pearl, a 3318CV Stockman. I had her for several weeks and she swayed me. I had to have one for myself.
- Then I realized the there was a 3318PU CV available - BAM! The punch replaces the the spey blade on this knife. If the arrangement had the punch blade replacing the coping blade, that would be the king, like on the Schrade-Walden 899. Of course I am also fond of the Case Copperheads....

Pearl the instigator:

Am OCD about blade rub so rarely do I buy a knife that opens from both ends. Am a wharncliffe fan, the sbj is my favorite.

I love Barlows so I have to go with these.

Wonderful choice, Chief!

I'm with Chief but I prefer the single blade version. Such a great pattern.

Been carrying this 1971 64047P 4-blade Stockman w/ punch all week.

Can't go wrong with the gent's version. Big fan ...

I'm not sure.

Tribal Lock. Lovely size and proportions and I am partial to back locks.

PS: I don't have enough full size Case Trappers by the way; there is a gigantic hole in the photo below that can only be filled by a dark blue jigged bone version. I don't know why I keep putting off buying one. I won't feel content until I have one.
With M4 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Weeeeeeeelllll
Until the Blue one in M4 comes along I just bought me a Dark Blue / Navy Blue in the SS (doesn't come in CV or you would now be looking at it).

And yes I now feel TOTAL contentment and am at peace for the first time in my life. Such a deal.

Totally agree ... big fan of the swedge grinds & single spring on the Bose Collab. The Ratcliffe version is double spring, but are still a nice slim knife ...

The teardrop is the most attractive, but I want a larger blade. I have a rough black humpback stockman whose f&f is the equal of almost anything I own, but I'm not a multi blade guy. My Case Bose lockback whittler is gorgeous and a marvel of design, but again I own it for that and not so much its three blades. I guess that means I'm left with the discontinued 20151 LSSP.

Mine is easily the 6292 Texas Jack.

Like a stockman without the hump of the sheepsfoot blade

Oh man this a hard question to answer.
If I had to choose it would be the 2 Blade Copperhead.


A close second would be the swayback but we’re splitting hairs here .

It's been a while since I posted in this thread.
Since then, my "Favorite Case" has changed... not a lot but still.
I used to love the Wharncliffe Mini Trapper, but now my favorite is the Dogleg Jack.
As you can see, they still share the frame design, so that has been my favorite for years.
