Case 6220 question

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Case 6220 question

Post by Blademan13 »

I have a Case 6220 I am looking for info on, I haven't found much. It is a CASEXX over SS over USA so I assume it is a 65-69. It looks to have jigged, red delrin scales. Is this a common knife?

From the info Cutty posted, it would seem that Blademan13's peanut might be in the 1980-89 range as it uses "SS" rather than the whole word "STAINLESS". A good picture of the tang would remove all doubt.

Look closely on each side of the "SS" stamp . You should see some dots on either side . That would confirm treefarmer's thoughts .

Treefarmer is correct, there are dots on each side of the "SS". Guess I was only off 20 yrs or so....


MrBlister, nope, not me!

Thanks for the help guys!

Been around a long time and always right popular w/many a folk.
Cain't hardly go wrong with any kind of red knife, 'specially a Pnut (j m h o )
