Unique Bulldog?

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Unique Bulldog?

Post by binghaje »

Trying to get some info about a Case Classic Bulldog I recently acquired. Here's what I believe I know. Pattern number is 61072. Build date is 1990. These stampings are on the blade.

It looks like a yellow bone with "bomb shield". However I do not see it listed in the price guide. Is the list exhaustive?

From what I see in Steve's book Collecting Case Knives, bone was called a Clasp, stag was the Bulldog, and horn was the Buffalo.
Take care and God bless,

I don't believe there are any Case Classics in Steve's book,has most were made by Queen.
It's hard to say what color they called some of the bone.Many were very close to the same,tan,green,honey,yellow etc.
