Help Identifying an Old Case

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Help Identifying an Old Case

Post by jtsteiert »

I pulled this out of my knife drawer the other day, I have had this knife as long as I can remember. I got it from my Father-In-Law and it was his for many many years, as you can see it is well used and well worn.
I can not locate any stamps on the tangs and have not been able to locate anything close to it through my searches online.
Can anyone tell me anything about this knife?
