Help with case shield

[gino]

What years did case use this shield?

[hardman]

Starting in 1974, Case used that shield (without the oval around the Case name) on all knives with walnut, black or yellow composition, pakkawood, or brown Delrin. It is called the "Composition Shield." It was used until about 1987, when Case started using the raised letter shield on all knives.
