All About Pocket Knives

Discussion came up at work.
Has Case ever made a damascus bladed fixed blade hunting style knife?
Thanks you all.
Tom

If you can't get an answer on here call Cosner's Gun Shop in Indiana. He would know. If they exist he would probably have some too.

you can call case directly and ask for shirley. she is very knowledgable concerning past case offerings.

why would i call a gun shop to ask about knife.that sit does not say any think sbout a knife

Hi Tom,

I know they did make some, but I can't recall when exactly. I think it was in the Parker era.

The ones I've seen had genuine stag handle scales.

Bryan's right...they made a Stag Handled Bowie Set in Damacus in 1889 (Full size bowie and a Kokiak). That was also the first year Case had used Damacus for anything. It seems like they have made a couple of more since then but, I can't remember them right now

Hi Perry,
I think you meant 1989 just for the benefit of any rookies who may be looking in.

One of these days I'll learn to proof read what I write...yep I meant 1989

Bryan's link got me to thinking, I don't do that often. Here's one I sold a couple of years ago. It's a 596-2 3/4" D...596 being the pattern, 2 3/4" blade, and damascus of course. The Case item number is 00110 and it was made just before Parker lost Case in 1990. Maybe a few others as well.

Nice Case Knifekid!
Very neat model.

Gosh Thanks a lot all of you.
(Tomorrow those guys at work will think I know something for a change!)
