Case USA mis-marked 61111 1/2

Post by djknife13 »

Anyone have any idea how many of these mis-marked 6111 knives came out of the factory with the extra "1" added before they noticed the mistake? I looked like I was examining lottery numbers when I noticed the numbers weren't right trying to count the ones. I kept thinking the 4th one was part of the 1/2. Thanks for any help you can give me. I posted a picture in 'Rarest Case knife" thread but it isn't a very clrear picture___Dave

No idea how many were made since it was a factory error. They are rare and desirable though.
