Pattern # 99
This pattern number has been assigned to two distinct knife patterns.
This version is a 4 1/8" jack knife known as a whaler or navy knife. All of
them have a very large single sheepfoot blade that some call a rope blade
because it is ideal in cleanly cutting through rope. This is done by
placing the edge of the blade against the rope and striking the back of the
blade with a mallet or other object. They most
often have a bail on the rear of the knife for easy carry. case started making them
between 1940-1964.

closed. Case has produced this knife
with both a spear master blade as well as a clip master blade. The other
blade has always been a pen blade as far as I know. When the master is a clip, the pattern
number is usually followed by a 1/2 (when there is a pattern number). Case introduced them sometime prior to
