Amber sure is pretty!

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.

Thanks, John. Seeing your Texas Jack reminded me I have one packed up along with a 75 large stockman. I pretty much only buy CV knives from Case anymore, love to use 'em. ::tu::

I really love my 75’s! You definitely need one or five!

One thing that Case do well is their jigging. Don't want to start an argument, but i would put this up against any GEC. The fit and finish, the walk and talk, the jigged bone are all exceptional. They are half the price and readily available, what is not to like. Have a good weekend, and excuse my rant. ::facepalm:: ::tu:: :)

That’s a looker for sure! I have my pets of other brands. But at heart I’m a CASE guy. That’s what all the men packed when I was growing up. There were other brands that were considered good, but CASE was the one to pack. Except for the kids. We were given one of the Old Timers. They were cheaper, lol.

Without even realizing, I collected this small little group. I think of the newer handle materials, this could be one of my favorites.
Of these five, the only one that I purchased new was the doctor’s knife. The others found there way to me by gift or the used market. I think I scored the 18 pattern most recently.

They are steeped in American knife history, as you have commented on, and if you get a really good one, the quality is exceptional. ::tu:: Have a good week mate. :)
