"J.D.C./Kane, PA."

Here is a small, 3" 4 blade Congress with green jigged bone handles that is of recent production.
Who is "J.D.C." and which knife manufacturer made it ?

I believe Jim Parker had a lot of these JDCase knives made in Germany in the 90's. They were originally marked Germany on the blade but it could be easily removed.

Yes as Tom said, another Parker/Olbertz creation.

Parker/Olbertz yes and quality seems less than that of the Parker Case Classics which i believe were mostly (or all ?) made by Queen.
This JDC is kind of odd. What possible niche in the knife market could there be for such a knife ? He must of lost money on some of these basically un-needed knives that he continually had made.
