Nice Knife BigDaddy!!!

Glad to pump some life back into it Perry. Good thread and many CASE patterns qualify as Jacks.

Reread the entire post again. Some great knives All!!!

Thanks Wosey. Funny you mentioned the word "inspired". I haven't touch those knives for a couple of months, and as corny as it sounds, I was like a kid at Christmas reaching for each one, even though I have handled them before. Thanks for starting the thread (awhile ago).

Keep them coming all. Regards, Jerry

Hey Tim,

Thanks for the compliment my friend. Pic on yours is alittle fuzzy (mine aint the best either) but clear enough to know that there are some fine ones you have there. Is that a 10 dot 5299-1/2 A blade on the bottom right?

Regards, Jerry

[timgreene48]

Yes sir, it is. sorry for the bad pic, I am new to all this electronic crap. the only way for me to take pics is on my daughters ipod. lol

[timgreene48]

Sorry! I didn't read your post thoroughly. No, I don't think that it is a n "a" blade, just a 10 dot. Haven't completely woke up yet! lol

Here is a TESTED 2228 EO with long pull...

Looks like it has been gassed or exposed to some element as there is some minor staining of some sort on only the exposed (not within liners when closed) top of the blade and the EO cut out on the master blade. Still a nice one though.

Best pics I could get for now.

[Just Plain Dave]

OH! Me LIKE! That is a FINE looking EO!

[zp4ja]

Thanks Dave! I like the EO and long pull on that one. Very easy to draw the blade with either.

Here a couple 028 frames. Kind of threw me off as to the pattern for a bit since last post was a 28 and of course, serpentine frame versus not, no model stamp, etc.

First 2 pics are a CASE TESTED 62028-1/2 in Slick Black.
Remaining pics are a CASE XX 22028-1/2 in Rough Black. This one has the closed "C" on the shield indicative of a early XX knife. Feel free to correct me on model and shield, early in era, if I am wrong.

Regards, Jerry

[Just Plain Dave]

OH MY! That Slick Black Serpentine is FINE!!!!

[zp4ja]

Here is another...

CASE XX USA 6216 Red bone...

[zp4ja]

Couple more...

Top knife is CASE XX 6249
Bottom knife is CASE 1970 10 dot 6202-1/2 Reddish Bone.

Reread the entire post again.

Jerry I agree it is fun to go back through
a thread sometimes for review in it's entirety.
Especially if it's 10 pages instead of 78.
Kinda like reading a book VS following a Sunday's
only comic strip. Not that I've ready many books,
don't want to give the wrong imspatulation.

Here's one I kinda like. Railroad theme 6292.
Cincinnati Union Terminal (C.U.T.) 50 yr. commem.


Backside same color, imagine that


Other 6292 is a 1999 Chestnut.
Might as well throw in the 032 as well.

[Chief RID]

I sure thought I had weighed in on this thread already. Here is a 1970 6292 Texas jack. One before on as it is now. Waiting on a primary blade.

[bigdaddys8ball]

here is a nice texas jack 40 to 64 that has nice walk and talk and half stops

[Just Plain Dave]

The last two look like they got some honest work!

[zp4ja]

Nice BigDaddy.

Here is a couple more in nice shape...

CASE XX 62031-1/2
CASE XX 6244
Both have model stamp.

[thefarside]

A few older Jacks for your review:
Top two photos - 6224 1/2 Green Bone Tested and a 6231 1/2 Rogers Bone Tested
Bottom two photos - 6216 Green Bone XX and a 5299 1/2 XX

[thefarside]

Two more that deserve a look:
6299 Green Bone XX and a 6299 Green Bone Tested
Last two photos show a Tested 6299 Box

[Just Plain Dave]

That one leaning against the box makes my heart go pitty pat!
