Folk's, I am gonna tell ya what I believe this Kodiak here is, then if anyone out there has a comment that seems to fit, I will add it to the description.
It has a small Case XX only stamp on the front and nothing on the off side. The stamp itself is consistent with the 1980 stamp. But, it has no dots. Bradley Wood, who covers Case fixed blades in the 6th edt. of Sargent's guide, talks of a small Case stamp in 1979 & a small stamp in the USA era. I believe this Kodiak to be a "transition" model between 1979 & 1980 and was stamped with the small Case stamp with the lightning S in the word Case, but no dots.
This is the Case Stag Kodiak hunter
Knife is 10 3/4" OAL
It has a 5 3/4" blade withthe Kodaik bear etch
Blade stamped: Case XX
The stag is thick & just gorgeous !!! Look at the side view of the Stag in the pics on the next page. The Stag has a curl in it just before the brass guard that just fits your hand oh so well
