5394 … some call it the Gunboat, others the Canoe …. a great

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.

Pics of my 5394 Canoe …. a great 3 bladed knife

I like the way I captured the natural light cascading off of the blades although I may try to take some more pictures when the sun isn't shining so brightly.

Hey Gary,

How have you been ? As for me, I'm doing pretty good, all things considered.

Are you still making those fine knives of yours ? I was chatting with a friend the other day .. I told him to look you up on the web as he is interested in a unique fixed blade knife.

I've always called it a "gunboat canoe" and reserved the term "canoe" for it's smaller counterpart . Impressive example !

Thanks Bob,

Yep, that's how I usually designate it as well …. It is one hefty knife. Thanks for the compliment.
