2020 Mini-Ts

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.

I saw those while scrolling through the Mini-Trapper section. These are the one's I'm interested in.
Maybe next month.

I like the basket weave jigged Mini-Ts that are in SMKW's latest ad better. One would add a sample of that jigging to my collection. They are advertising 3 colors but unfortunately not a natural wicker basket color.

I have those on my wish list too. Probably just one. Can't decide on the color though. I think those are 2019 and not 2020 so not relevant to this thread.

They ever make these with a Wharncliffe secondary? If so, I may be interested.

The spey blade is antiquated and, in my opinion, a completely worthless blade. I continued to be amazed and perplexed as to why Case continues to produce so many knives with this blade...

I count 8 with the Wharncliffe blades that replace the spey in the current line-up.. And 1 that has just a single blade Wharncliffe..

This is even less relevant but Queen made #19 standard Trappers in which they replaced the clip blade with the Wharncliff. That way the knife did not lose its best curved edge and the knife sill had a fine point on the Wharncliff. I'm not sure which is better but I suspect that if Case made some Min-Ts that way they'd sell more Mini-T's to a couple of the collectors here. Am I wrong?

All I know is that the Spey is a complete waste of a blade on any knife.

Multiple 207s in a variety of handle colors/materials but nary a 2020 07W to be found among the new releases...at least not yet. Why is this? ::shrug:: Could it be that more collectors actually prefer the Spey over a Wharncliffe? ::uc::

My personal observation is that 207Ws are generally quite popular and, with the exception of the yellow 3107W, new 107Ws always sell out relatively quickly (and are equally as popular on the secondary market as well).

And while I'm at it...why has Case NEVER produced a 5207W...ever? :? Perhaps someone ought to contact Case's marketing dept. and bring them up to speed. ::hmm::

Case does what they want. Things that don't make sense to us apparently somehow make sense to them...

Ain't that the truth...As evidenced by the Pink Digi-Camo LT207 (jerryd's latest 07 acquisition ::poke:: )
