hi all
Just digging through some boxes from when my dad passed away, and found a bundle of my grandfather's gear from when he lived in Canada (I'm uk based)
In amongst some awesome fishing gear, there were a couple of knives, including this Case folder
After a bit of digging online it looks 1932-40 according to the blade stamps...but wondering if anyone knew what model it was?
Not selling, just interested
Many thanks in advance

You have a Case Folding Hunter, Tested era 1920-40 pattern number 6265. Since both blades are stamped and it has the Bomb Shield I would date it closer to 1920. Nice knife.

That is just excellent to have your Grandpa's knife like that. Wish I had one of my Grandpas.

For sure. I never met my grandpa - died before I was born, but to be able to use his knife (and some fishing gear) and know he's had his hands on it, as did my dad, is nice.
Really nice
