Case Factory Error?

Post by srm65 »

I have two 1987 folding hunters that were made in error. The first picture is a smooth yellow 3165 with a Buffalo etched on the handle (should be a Yellow Bulldog). The second picture is of a smooth white 3165 with a Bulldog etched on the handle (should be a Buffalo). Is this a factory error from Case or did they contract these out? Can't do much with them the way they are. Thanks ::dang::

They're nice knives! I would think they should have some worth to someone.

Curious, what did you want to do with them ? Blade doesn't know what etch is on the side ...

srm65, I recall something about those knives, something about them being somewhat rare. But beyond that, I got nothing. But if they were mine, I would definitely hold on to them. I think they have some value to them. Even beyond their obvious value as great knives.
