Super nice knives, Larry

The 5391 WR is my favorite. First one I have seen!

Her are a couple of Rare ones I think. The stag is a Tested Gunstock Whittler 5387 1920-40. Not sure on the pattern but the bottom one is a Case Bros Little Valley Wharncliffe Whittler 1900-1912.

Thanks for looking.

2 Great Knives, Tom

Did you find them at the Gator Show?

Tom, beautiful knives! The frame shape (sleeveboard?) of the pearl whittler reminds me of 76 pattern. That being said, I don't recall seeing a 76 with wharncliffe blade or in pearl.

Tom, you're really torturing me with those whittlers!

That gunstock whittler is super.

Fantastic knives Larry, I agree with Olderdogs, that anglo saxon whittler is spectacular!
Sweet knives Tom, the gunstock is really pretty and unique, I don't imagine those are seen to often

Here is a W.R. Case & Sons Bradford, PA (1914-1920) W.W.I Easy Opener Navy Knife. The master has a very high quality crocus polish on the mark side and Made In USA in a double circle stamped on the back. The back-springs are also crocus polished. The bail is of thick gauge and is quite long.

Beautiful knives here guys.
Great looking knife you have there, Beachtree.
Unique cut on the file.

Beechtree · Post by **Beechtree** » Wed Feb 03, 2016 3:40 pm

Thanks Joe, I agree, the file blade is also quite large as far as file blades go.

That a wonderful Old Navy Knife

This is probably my rarest Case. A 1972 curly maple sharktooth.

Thank for looking

Rogers bone is my favorite case handle. Nice knives Larry

Tom

RalphAlsip · Post by **RalphAlsip** » Sat Feb 13, 2016 11:53 pm

This is a WR Case & Sons 2345P. Look closely at the handles, they are Ebony - not slick black composition. Ebony handles on Case knives seems rare in general, and this is the only 45 pattern that I have seen handled in Ebony. I hope this one is not too rare

Thanks for looking.

Wow, Jerry that the only one like that I've ever seen. Very nice

Larry

I really like that 45, Jerry

Tom

I like it too.

You said Rarest not Oldest.
1 of 2 Prototypes made. never went into production. Autumn Bone with Silver Script

Mumbleypeg · Post by **Mumbleypeg** » Thu Mar 10, 2016 9:21 pm

Recently acquired this one that meets requirements for this thread. Case Bradford 8383. It's been well used but it's tight with great walk and talk. Has the "square" bolsters on the master blade end. Nice pearl but chipped at center pin on mark side.
