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.

Your Whittler is jaw-dropping; at least my jaw is dropping. Just terrific. ::ds::

I'm not a case scholar but I've never seen a 76 till now. Was it only made in the tested era?
