Jesse James Case XX 6254 SS Red Bone Trapper Knife #001

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.

Do an advanced search of eBay sold listings for Case 6254 Trapper. Find some 1990s examples - yours looks like maybe late 90s. That will give you a good idea of value. Search also for”Case Commemorative Trapper”. Case has made thousands of similar “commemoratives”. Their value is rarely more than any non-commemorative version of the same knife.

BTW, here is another recent thread with essentially the same question. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=65458

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.

Your pictures don't show the "dots" used for dating a Case knife, so here's the tang stamp "chart" for 1993-1999. Just in case you're not familar how the dot dating system works. All dots = 1993. Remove a dot for each new year. One dot = 1999.
