Old Case, Bradford office knife

Here's the other knife I picked up in MO last week. Nothing really special just a well used old Case. Snap on the main blade is gone and the blade is worn. I thought it would come back some if I oiled it. I was wrong.

Nice old Knife, Wullie.
If knives could talk I'm sure this one would have some stories.

Reckon why all those "Office Knives" and "Corn Knives" were handled in French Ivory (Faux Ivory)? Anybody got a guess?

Knice old knife. The scales on office and corn knives were originally real ivory so faux ivory was a less expensive substitute while still maintaining the traditional style.
