Re: 1992 Ivory Knife
I'm not a Case expert by any means but that is a Half Whittler, not a Copperhead. Just a mistake on the sellers part - he has another Half Whittler labled correctly.
I don't know what they book for but even a Bulldog should draw at least twice that for ivory on a knife as small as 3-1/8 inches.
I wonder what the Case guys have to say?

That's OK, I'm learning about Case, not as fast as I thought.
Sure had me fooled, thanks for the correction, just helps with the learning process.

Re: 1992 Ivory Knife
IV=Ivory(can be seen in Sargent's latest page 31)
I= Imitation Ivory(or recently mastadon)
Also notice that the shield is the one used on synthetic materials

Re: 1992 Ivory Knife
That was a standard catalog product, not an SFO but as others have pointed out the handles are ivory delrin, not ivory.
Case brought out a few patterns including the trapper in that handle and the same patterns in imitation pearl....they were only in the catalog for one year maybe two...so they are somewhat rare.

I bought a 1992 I201 Pen knife for $ 60.00 that was advertized as Ivory...........it is Ivory Delrin......it was a lesson learned for me....but I do like the knife...and was suspicious all along........Seller was Sexton Knife Works

Re: 1992 Ivory Knife
BigHead, I've seen the same thing; from this seller. Just about every knife at his store is "Buy Now", with sky-high prices. I don't see how he can sell much; with his prices.
