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.

Thanks, Larry, I was glad to get it as I didn't have one. The old Congress knives are one of my favorite patterns.

Thanks Junebug and Tom
The knife came from the auction but I was outbid by Tony Foster, I called him up and made a deal for it.

The knives being posted from the Davis auction are spectacular! The auction catalog pictures were seriously lacking.
Larry, your Gunboat is especially nicer than the auction catalog picture - amazing!
