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.

Great restoration of a very cool knife. In today's disposable-just-buy-a-new-one consumer mentality, it's very satisfying to see a quality built item get repaired and returned to active duty. Well done, Greg!

Thanks Q! From the pics it looks fantastic. Can't wait to get it in hand. He said it fires like a .44 magnum.
He's one of our own and I suspect I'll be giving him a big thumbs-up when I get it.

That's really nice, Greg. Good effort in getting that knife repaired.
You had a great blade to start with.

I thought they were the same knife. Very well matched. Looks good. I also like the barlow

Keith they are nearly identical brand new and unused. That's a pretty hot pattern so I figured what the heck.

You will not regret that one Phil. Seriously heavy duty knife(s).
Compared to the chunks of congress' you like, you may not notice it in your pocket.

Hey Justin. There is probably a more appropriate thread for you to post that in. "Any one obsessed with a particular pattern "

Really nice acquisitions folks! Phil that 31 looks like a workhorse, and Justin that 80 has some mighty fine bone on it!
