CASE XX 6250 GREENBONE

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.

CASE XX 6250 GREENBONE

Post by k_kess »

I posted this as part of a group but I think I'll split them up for a little closer examination... CASE XX pre 1949 - no pattern stamp - greenbone... This was one of my Dad's favorite patterns, he actually carried one... More to follow.... Thanks, Ken

Well Happy Mother's Day ... Another 6250 - almost a clone... with a twist... The tang stamp on this knife is a heavy block CASE... no XX - just CASE... The shield is an oval with an open C and a tall S - late tested and early XX so from the same time period.... Is this a common "error" ? Thanks in advance, Ken

This is actually an xx era(40-64). The xx’s are hidden by the bolster. If you look closely you should be able to see the tops of the x’s

Jdub…. You are, of course, correct! … I must say that I had to use a 30x lighted loupe to see a tip of the X under the S... Thanks, Ken
