Who still carries a Case Knife?

Interesting! Have never seen or even heard of that configuration. Perfect for Wharncliffe fans!

I've never seen one either, I was looking for a Case Wharncliffe copperhead on a dealer's site and I stumbled on that one.
 
Still one of my favorites.

The Copperhead has two Wharncliffe blades

Well that is just the oddest thing. I had to go Google it, and sure enough, there are not only double-Wharncliffe models, but some of them have two *serrated* Wharncliffes.

I am a fan of the Copperhead pattern myself. I have versions with the Wharncliffe main and pen secondary, and clip main and pen secondary.

I always thought that the perfect knife in that size range would be one with the regular clip and a full-length Wharncliffe. The only one I have ever seen like that was a Case 0200 SFO model that Jeff ( black mamba black mamba ) occasionally trots out a photo of to torment me with.

But instead of making those, they are going with double-Wharncliffes. 🤷‍♂️

Yes, a full sized Wharncliffe with a regular clip blade would be ideal.
I wonder if Case will ever make them again.

Both look lovely - hows the F&F? Which handles are on the Copperhead, and where did you get it? I might just have to pick one up!

The Copperhead has white synthetic scales, but is offered in white smooth bone too ( for $10 more). The F&F on my knife is spot on... good grind, no wobble... a little light on the pull, but I like it that way.
The dealer isn't a supporting dealer, but if you google "Case copperhead wharncliffe" a picture of it will pop up.

Ah, yeah, that top one is just like Jeff's! The 0200WHSS! I have a different 0200 pattern which has a long spey as the secondary but the same pointy Copperhead clip, with some kind of deep carved dark brown bone. So it has something of a Trapper blade combo on a Copperhead Frame. I think I may have even bought that one from Jeff through the Exchange here.

I don't think I have ever seen the serrated Wharncliffe version before.
