Maybe not the worst, but at least honorable mention!

This one is pathetic. Were these handle covers created using a Dremel? ::shrug:: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Case-3 ... SwbZBbvjZj

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

At least he says in the description that he thinks it’s a fake. There is no doubt, it’s a fake. I think you are correct about the jigging being done w/ a Drexel tool. Case never made that one.

Nope. Look familiar? Plastic handles on a Rough Rider Mini-Trapper I have. Though not an exact copy, very, very similar.

That "Case" is pathetic. It's as if these guys have never seen what jigged bone looks like. I don't like the jigging on Rough Rider knives - it's the one area where I think they really don't get it. IMHO their smooth knives look much better. Their pick bone is also not bad, but the jigged bone is bleech...

I don't think that's intended as a replication of bone. I think it's supposed to look like Ram's horn.
