Total phony piece of garbage. The first clue should be....nothing about it looks even remotely like an authentic CASE knife of any era.
Bone is wrong, jigging is wrong, frame size and shape are wrong, blade shapes are wrong, blades appear to be brushed finish stainless steel....
As a side note, there was never a bone handle canoe pattern made during the Case Tested era. Stag, yes, but not bone. The 62131 bone handle canoe was not introduced until 1964 with the CASE XX stamp....and those were just a "pilot" run making the XX stamped Canoe EXTREMELY rare and often counterfeited. Of course the stamping changed in 1965 to CASE XX USA and from then on the bone handled canoe has been a standard pattern in the Case line.
