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.

Mike, beautiful muskrat
Wayne, beautiful old knives. The propeller shield is my favorite old Case shield. The half Congress is a very nice pattern
Miss that knife Jerry. Great old Tested in excellent condition. Congratulations on that.
I really like the rat Mike.

Jerry H. In Texas and Jerry A. In Nevada I sure am glad I ran up on you two fellas. What beautiful knives you have.
And that's Greg in Georgia , don't forget.

IF YOU AIN'T BUYING OR LOOKING AT A KNIFE THEN YOU AIN'T LIVING.
Always looking to buy good quality Empire knives.
Added this little yella fella to the 107W collection. That CV steel is wicked sharp...took a bite outta my thumb when I was closing it (has a snappy half-stop, too).
Tom, very nice 91! Like Larry said there are not very many of these so who know if or when you might see another one. You would probably have more regrets for not picking it up
Thanks Larry, Greg, Jerry, and Steve.
I didn't want to pass it up knowing they were very rare plus the condition was nice. I can not eat out as much, lol

Here is my latest pickup, a 6391 Tested Winterbottom whittler proving "A fool and his money" you know the rest

Tom, did you get that from RD down in florida, he showed me a nice 91 awhile back, I remember it being just as nice, cant imagine there are many more out there, so odds are limited. AMAZING KNIFE. Dreamly scales.

Holy man, some outstanding knives as usual! Here are a couple of humble additions, both 8 dots...The fish knife is in great condition except for the usual little pin cracks at the center pins as I seem to find on so many of the old yellas...and a real nice 6232 with some fine pocket worn bone handles. The 32 is from Tom, thank you very much sir.

Nice knives Mike. the 32 Jack is a great pattern in my opinion.
More 8 dots. Just curious how many you have now and how many left to go on the list Steve provided?
Regards, Jerry

Thanks Jerry...I am up to 18 different 8 dots now...still quite a few left to go! Finding ones I can afford is a big part of the challenge, but I am chipping away at it slowly...
