Case fixed blade Carson

[melton714]

I just ran across an Old Case fixed blade knife on e Bay, because of the price I thought it might be worth a little research I took a few pictures off the screen of my computer. I've never heard of a Carson but I'm sure some of you can tell me why it's not in any of the books I use to find everything else.
So if any of you could share some of your knowledge about it with me I would appreciate it.

Case made a series of fixed blades with names like Cody, Boone, Scout, Carson, and some others I can't recall stamped on the tang. I don't have access to my copy at present but Sargent's 7th edition has an extensive section on Case fixed blades. There's a paragraph or two in it about these.

Your knife was made for Case in the Kinfolks plant in Little Valley N.Y. between approximately 1925 and 1933. The Case branded knives bearing names like your Carson knife are great collectible knives. Other names to ad to Ken's list would be CENTO, and EXPERT.
