Case & Case related knives over 100 years old

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.

Agree with the rest Tom. Fine old 94 there.

Thanks, Larry & Zack,
This Is the 1st one like this I have had although I do have a Pearl J D Case knife. It is a very hard stamp to find in the old knives.
I just keep on the hunt for them and every now and then a rare knife shows up.

That is indeed a rare stamp Tom. I don't recall ever seeing but maybe one or two of them. And on a nice old jack too! ::tu:: Don't know how you keep finding those gems.
