Did that come from the Case factory that way or is it a display of a knife mechanics skills? What ever it is, it's neat.

That's a really pretty knife, I like the long pull spear and the very well fitted pieces. Not normally a big fan of the whittler pattern, but, I'd be happy to own that one. ::tu::

WOW!!! That's way out!!!

What's etched on the reverse of the main blade? I couldn't quite make it out.

It originally came out of the Queen factory.My opinion it was later rehandled and marked prototype.It has a pattern# for bone handles.

Perhaps Case should start marketing this type of handled knife instead of "Ninja Turtles" ::teary_eyes::

Dan, don't get them started. They'll do both.

I agree Joe.
I should be careful what I wish for.

Turns out this is not and authentic prototype.

although it IS, a case classic knife, and even with awesomely done handles.. It turns out the etch is not a genuine prototype etch.

or... it wasn't done by an authorized individual.

Every time I try out the classics I get burned haha, but I will live to see another day... and another classic. haven't given up. But it add a new dynamic to my collecting

I feel fairly confident I can avoid any case xx fake, tested, xx and some older.

Now time to learn the classics, what to avoid and signs of issues.

Fortunately, I believe the seller sold the knife honestly, don't think he knows much about knives. just selling on commission. All is well here.
