1992 Case Classic Case Brothers Gowanda, NY 6254 trapper.

This is a 1992 Case Classic trapper, pattern 6254 / 254, with the desirable Case Brothers Gowanda, NY tang stamp. This is part of the Case Classic era, not an original early Case Brothers knife. The Gowanda tang stamp is one of the features that makes this version interesting to Case Classic collectors.

AAPK’s Case Classic reference material notes that the 254 trapper was one of only two Case Classic patterns to carry the Case Brothers Springville and Case Brothers Gowanda tang-stamped versions, the other being the 2100 saddlehorn.

This example has green / olive jigged bone handles, nickel silver bolsters and shield, brass liners and pins, and two stainless blades. Blades appear full and clean with only light handling or storage marks. The knife has not been cleaned, buffed, or altered by me.

Condition is very nice overall, but not mint. The main condition issues I see are age/stain/discoloration on the shield and bolsters, shown in the photos. I do not see obvious cracks in the bone handles. Blades have good walk and talk. Please study the photos closely, as they are part of the description and show the exact knife being sold.

I try to describe knives honestly and conservatively. If you have any questions or would like another photo before buying, please ask.

Price: $229.95 plus shipping
U.S. shipping only.
