"TWO HOT 091 PROTOTYPES FROM SAM TURNER COLLECTION"

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.

"TWO HOT 091 PROTOTYPES FROM SAM TURNER COLLECTION"

Post by Roger - 50/2050 »

Howdy knifer friends,

Here for your viewing pleasure are two very, very "Rare" 091 large frame, split back spring Whittler patterns straight out of the "Sam Turner collection" that are true Prototypes! ....Now keep in mind knifer friends that this pattern was one of Jim Parker's favorites so much attention to detail was made to these knives at the time of production! ....Below is as follows the description for both these two "Hot Beauties",

1.) 1991 - 091 with Genuine Mastodon Ivory handles - Case "Raised" Bomb shield - W.R. Case & Sons main blade etch ----> "Prototype" ::nod:: ::tu::

2.) 1992 - 091 with Genuine Sheephorn handles - Case Arrow shield ----> "Prototype" ::nod:: ::tu::
