Starting Over

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.

Larry, the Tested XX 6380 is amazing! Is this the one pictured in color in Sargent's 7th edition? It is one of the most pristine Tested knives I've seen. My understanding is that this pattern was very scarce in Tested. Awesome find! ::tu:: ::tu::

Larry another awesome old Case knife!! It also looks like a "pictured" knife from Sargent's 7th edition. It's unusual (in my experience) to see the spear blade be the main blade when there is also a large clip blade. Beautiful addition to you 94 stable. ::tu:: ::tu::
