Case Knife

Does anyone know any info on this knife? Just picked it up at a pawnshop and am wondering what I have here. Can't find it anywhere online.

Welcome to the forum.

That is a Case Classic. Mr. James (Jim) Parker owned Case when these were made. He was the facilitator to the best of my knowledge. I don't know the exact details of how the outsourcing & distribution was handled. I think Blue Grass Cutlery was involved somehow, but Queen manufactured most of them & Case manufactured the rest (around 4 patterns at their own factory, IIRC). You can read a bit about them and find some info about that specific pattern on the link below...

Any idea what the value is? I plan on keeping it for my collection but would like to know

Over the last couple of years, I would say they average around $200 or so on eBay.

Cool, thank you

My question is what did you pay? That is100% its value. If it wasn’t you would have paid more. What someone else paid or what someone puts in a book is 100% subjective. A onifeis only worth what Some is willing to pay on any given day.
