I cannot find this case knife tang stamp in any other charts

[Drscotty]

Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum. I am completely new to this site. I cannot find this tang stamp in any of the Case knife charts. I see some that are similar but not exact.

Could you please help me identify the date.

I would say 2006
Did you click on the RESEARCH at the top of the page.
Scroll to Case Age Identification

2000 to 2009

5 dot and 5 Xs is 2000
A dot or X was removed every year.
4 Xs remain on yours is 2006

Welcome to AAPK.

Up there ^^ in the grey header at the top of the page, if you click on Research, then click on Case and follow the prompts to “Case Pocket Knife Age Identification”, you’ll get here: https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/co ... ification/. Then scroll down and toward the bottom you’ll find the stamp on your knife and the explanation of how to tell the year it was made.

2000 – 2009

In 2000, Case developed a dating system using an old style Case XX stamp along with a mix of dots and x’s both above the Case XX symbol and below. Case started with 5 x’s, and 5 dots in 2000. For each year thereafter, they removed one dot. When all of the dots were gone after 2005, the x’s were removed one by one until 2010.
