Case xx 5171L

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.

That's very nice.

I've always wanted to buy one of those but I have never seen one for sale.

Where did you find it?

Welcome to AAPK, earle8888! ::handshake:: That's a fine lookin' Case!

You wouldn't be lookin' to adopt an old redneck that would appreciate your stuff, would ya'? Weatherby rifle caused my ears to perk up :) !

That's a conversation we have here at home, what are the kids going to do with our worldly possessions one day?

There's a guy on the Case Collector's Club Forum that just put out feelers for one of those. If you're interested in selling, I'd be happy to put the two of you in touch. Just send me a PM.
