Sweet knife, Mark! I've been wanting one of those for years but will probably never get one unless I buy it today. Being an Illinois resident I apparently can't buy Mammoth Ivory after January 1st. Should have bought one long ago.

Very nice knife!
Rick, I think it’s a shame what legislators do. There is no reason on God’s green earth for that. Hope you get one. A.G. has made these in different handle materials so if nothing else you could get one of those. On the Moki thread someone posted one in Chinese Quince wood, it’s really nice looking.

Good point, Mark and thank you for the reminder. I knew these were offered in a couple of different handle options but I had forgotten about it. Looks like I won't be left out after all If I decide to track one down.

Not technically a mail call but I had to share. Been looking for a nice dagger for a while, I'm not much for fixed blades but I had to have this one. Swapped for this baby today.
P62-4 1/2
Anyone know what years these were actually in production? The tang stamp indicates sometime between 1965-1980, be nice to narrow it down a little more.

If anyone has a line on an original sheath drop me a PM please.

I'm no expert on Case but I happen to have a the same knife you have. Mine has the lightning bolt SS which according to my info was used 1980 to 1989. 1980 had 10 dots and one was removed for each year. Mine has 8 dots so I interpret that to mean it was made in 1982. I bought one of these in the 80's and lost it along the way and just recently replaced it.

Thanks Iman! I think some of the Giraffe bone is on par with the very best mammoth. That one is quite beautiful and I was very fortunate to get it.
