Classics stamped CS

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.

Classics stamped CS

Post by black1970 »

I have 2 Classics stamped with a small CS on the main blades. One is a 91 bone and the other is a Moss Bottom clasp. I am pretty sure these are cosmetic seconds as both have a small crack in one of the pins. I was on the CC Club a while back and no one seemed to know what CS meant. Can some one please chime in on this topic as I have noticed there are many knowledgeable people here on the subject. Thanks!

Since they are Case Classics, could the CS stand for candy stripe and someone rehandled them? ::shrug::
