Case Classic Clasp protos...

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.

This is just a few knives from his collection. He has, arguably, one of the top collections of clasp knives, anywhere. He is having a problem re-sizing his pictures, so he told me I could post them. Just want everybody to see them. Have more. Will try to post them soon.

Thank you Bill, for posting those pics for me, your kindness is much appreciated. I'll try it one more time... Hopefully the pics will come out a more manageable size this time. If this one works, I'll post pics of a beautiful Sheep Horn knife...
Nothing left to do but :D :D :D
