Case Swayback or Teardrop?

[Doug51]

I'm new to Case knives. I'm trying to decide between a Swayback or a Teardrop. They look real similar in size. Would anyone have both that could post a comparison picture? I'm thinking a wharncliffe blade on the Teardrop. And haven't decided on two blade or single. Looking for opinions. Thanks

Doug, if you Google "Case swayback vs teardrop pocket knives" and then click on "Images" you will see lots of examples. There are several different curved body shapes and sizes that are called swaybacks and you will see them all. The teardrops of course are the ones with the pointy end bolster.

Here's a good Web site for any collector of newer Case knives. You can pretty much find any current or recent pattern here. http://www.casexx.com/Pattern/
