Case XX Copperhead

Post by btrwtr »

This is another example of the often counterfeited Case 6249 XX green bone copperhead pattern.

The bone on this knife is different than most fakes but still far from correct.

Stainless blades.

Rivets are not spun.

Handle pin placement is terrible.

Pattern number is way too large.

This is a knife I'd have to have in hand to make a decision. They did make an XX era -49 in Rogers bone. Just my 2 cents.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Yes they did, but this ain't one of them.

Thanks, Steve!

I hope the guy who shelled out $305 knows what he's getting. ::facepalm::

I have bought two genuine XX 6249s in green bone on Ebay for less than that each.
