[lyns]

i'M LOOKING AT THIS KNIFE AND IT HAS TWO DIFFERENT BLADE STAMPINGS.
THE MAIN BLADE IS STAMPED (94) AND THE SMALL BLADE IS STAMPED (95).
CAN THIS BE RIGHT OR IS IT FISHY?

It could be right. Not saying it is or isn't. But I own transitions of this nature in other patterns,that I bought when they were released.I dont see anything in the photo's that would make me doubt it, but limited photo's=limited knowledge. Hope this helps.

THANKS FOR THE INFO - I'M BASICALLY A ROOKIE & ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED.

It might be possible that the knife was sent back to Queens for repair after they were out of the 1994 blades
and they used a 1995 to repair it.

This knife was not made by Case.

Is it a Classic made by Blue Grass?

Actually, the knife was made by Queens under a license agreement between Case and Jim Parker. Blue Grass Cutlery was the marketing firm and shipping firm. A very high quality knife, and yes, it could be a transition knife as well.

The Saddlehorn, Congress, Trapper and the Gunboat patterns were made by Case ..... all of the other patterns in th Case Classic series were made by Queens. Please note : On page 64 of " Case Classics, Best In The Long Haul " it is stated that SOME of the early 91 whittlers were also made by W.R. Case & Sons interesting read !!!!
