Hey Tim, here is the sibling to your Peanut. I do have to say I am quite fond of the Case smooth bone knives.

1980' SR 6220 "Satin Rose"

1995' 6220 in Antique Bone

Last 2 pics are of a 1 bladed Peanut. 1995' 5120. Look at the top view pic, some fat stag for a small knife.

Regards all, Jerry

And for those of you that like a specific blade for a job (and small scissors) here is a 5 bladed Peanut. She is only about one inch wide so even though a 5 blader, one could pocket carry one. I wouldn't but hey, that's me, to each his own.

Some pretty green bone with what resembles a late Rogers jig to me.

From my time hanging out at the Case Collector's Club Forum, I can tell ya that those Chestnut bone are super popular among the bone colors produced over the last several years.

Hey zp4ja, is that what they call a Big Nut or a Mini-Beast? Pretty cool! ::tu::

I finally got mine, 2 stag 5120Rs with very different looks. Sorry Bob, no mammoth but I still like them both. 1978 2 dots in stainless.

Very nice RR! Like those stags especially with the bail. SWEET!!! Please call me Jerry if you like.

I believe you are correct in the "Big Nut or Mini Beast" label. But since no etch, not sure. I have about five or six CASE 5 blade knives. A 6507 Mini Trapper, the posted Peanut 6520, 6539 Sowbelly, 6549 Copperhead, 5554 Trapper and a 5592 Stockman.

Wazu posted a "Big Nut" on the following post and I believe his is engraved and serialized. Maybe the is the difference here. I started the post since my 5554Trapper does not have the Beast etch.

Here is the link...

Some really nice peanuts being shown here … ::tu:: ::tu:: ``

I am really likin' this pattern - had one in my pocket since I discovered them.

Here's my 'mighty' collection …

The black one snaps like a little gator and is possibly the best built case knife I own. It has also nipped me 3 times now …

Outstanding collection everyone. I have these Case Limited Edition Series. I have all of the regular release Peanuts. Case did not produce a peanut for the Series XX or Series XXI, so I substituted with a Baby Butterbean. Pic is not real good.

Nice knives Dave and Edge!

Sweet collection Magoo!

Nice knife Garddogg! Sweet gift. A sweet small carry knife. Fits perrfect in the coin pocket of the jeans. Everyone has their own opinion but since I posted this knife about 2 months ago on page 2 of this thread, I turned it into a full time EDC. First from my collection. the handles are about to implode and I figured it was easier to keep an eye on it if I carried it. It certainly does a lot of work for a small knife.

My Harvest Orange Bone Peanut, manufacture date: 2016. I own five Case knives, but this is my favorite. For a while I wondered why the two blades open on the same end, then I figured something out. It allows the body of the knife to have that gentle S-curve, which makes the knife comfortable in the hand. A blade on either end would preclude the curve. Also, I read something cool about a 30-day Peanut challenge but can't find it again. Have any of you seen it?

Welcome to AAPK Roger! And thanks for resurrecting this old thread. Surely there's some more Peanuts that have been acquired since 2012 that need to be shown here (or some members that gave joined since then and have some Peanuts they need to show)!
Come on, let's see them. 8)
