Newest Case Pick-Ups

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.

An old one and a new one! ::nod::
First is a tested era 6172 with the pattern # and 3pin handles which should indicate that it was fairly early in the tested era. It also sports the bowtie sheild.
And second ,I just can't get enough of these, an Antique bone tribal lock.

Wow gsmith, that Tested era is beautiful. They don't make bones like that anywhere anymore. Fabulous. XxTestedXx, knocking it out of the park on multiple hits there. Love the old green and Rogers bones on the oldies. Both of you rocked it today.

Funny you should ask - I have been playing with it, and after about 20 tries I did manage to OHO it. I can now do it maybe 1 out of 3 tries. I have fairly large hands (XL work gloves) and I think that helps a little. I just powered it open with my thumb using heavy, slow pressure and a careful hold on the handle in my palm. It is not fast nor does it feel natural. It is a fairly scary thing to do and it is not something I would do in normal every day use.

Thanks, wish the blade didn’t have the pitting. It’s very shallow and could probably be cleaned,and got out... but I’m not gonna do that. The handles are great and the shield is nice.
