Vintage CASE Folding Knives

I just realized that the two W.R.s (one in each pic) are different knives. (I have a few duplicates

).
Can anyone tell me if they have Rodger's bone on them??
It is different, whatever it is.

some dandies being shown her. Here is a little W.R I got for $1 a few years ago, appears never sharpened, just aged.

Hey Dimitri! Find that Case Bros. yet??

Here's a row of shapely ones, kinda like a chorus line!

Look but don't touch!!

The knives above are 6383-5383s, and this picture has the smaller 6308 pattern;

Here's the only one of these I've seen in the flesh, er. . .greenbone

! Of course I had to buy it!

It's a Tested 64055P Junior Cattle Knife. I think the spey is a tad (1/8"?) short, otherwise it's a goodie!

I hope everyone is enjoying this thread as much as I am??

I know I am

Ok, it`s not a folding knife.

But I thought it would go well here. Check out the big slabs of jigged green bone on this Case Tested XX hunting knife

Charlie,

Nice showing of knives so far. Could you possibly have even more Case knives?

P.S. I am still looking for the Case Bro`s.

Gee, Dimitri, there's enough bone there for four folders!!
When you are used to looking at folding knives, those handles look like small continents!

To answer one of your questions, I collected just Case for a few years, and I was making good money as a general contractor, and the rest is obvious. I will have to sell a bunch by and by, but I'll wait as long as I can.
And I do have a few more to show

!

Shoot! If I hit the "lottery" I will buy up every Case that is for sale even the fakes! ! " - - but I guess I would have to buy a lottery ticket first wouldn't I?

Now I have another question. (Hope my ignorance does not show too much) I have this "Commemorative" Case Texas Jack (?) in near mint condition. I do not intend to sell it but would like to have an idea of it's value. I could not get a photo to actually show the etch on the main blade but it reads - -" 1879 BRADFORD CENTENIAL 1979" - - . It has really thick "stag" on the handles and the numbers "5292" -- and "SSP" on the pen blade. I know most of the details about the numbering system but wonder if a commemorative issue is as valuable as a "standard 92 series.

Here it is.

Thanks Ulf, it is an impressive piece of jigged bone.

Charlie, I have finally found that old Case Bro`s knife

It is a BIG old Beast with worm groove jigged bone

I have included a picture of a scarce Case Bro`s, knife box that these knives were displayed in.

Nice Toe, Dimitri! It's cool that you have a box too!

Big, rare knife!!
