Newest Case Pick-Ups

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.

Jerry, that is a fine lookin' little knife!
I've an old one that belonged to my Dad, Elvis replaced the worn out blades years ago but it's too little for me to even use for a Sunday knife.

True Philip but it's not as small as this little 6233.

Speaking of Barnboard...

I love the Antique Barnboard and this Mini Trapper is also somewhat unique because of the "Saturn" shield (which also happens to be brass)...really don't see that too often. I wish it had a Wharncliffe blade too.

Aww, you got the one from the Mint Set with the embellished bolsters. Mine is just the plain bolster one of the Limited Edition. It makes me smile anyway.

One thing I noticed on the 31 is how half the detail on the shield is buffed away, that got me curious so I started looking at pictures of other slick black knives and a lot of them show varying degrees of this on the shields. I guess Case polished these knives after final assembly.
Beautiful Knives John!! ::tu::

Very nice Q. I'm like you, I don't usually pick up many with embellished bolsters. But sometimes, if the price is right, and it just strikes you in the right way, you just can't pass it up. Case in point (pun intended :mrgreen: ) I came across this one last week when I was visiting relatives down in L.A. (Lower Alabama aka: Mobile) The price was right and I just liked the color. A 2015 6347 Large Stockman in Red with the embellished bolsters.

Some beautiful knives being shown around here! ::tu:: I especially like that 6233 of yours Jerry! ::tu:: It's awesome! ::nod:: :D

I picked up this near mint 2017 Slimline Trapper at a reasonable price back in June but it just showed up this week. ::doh:: Although these puppys are larger knives than I normally prefer for carrying, it's a fine additon to my small collection of Case knives. ::tu:: Thanks for looking! ::handshake::

Very nice Tom! I like a slimline trapper! Great for slicing tomatoes, cucumbers and any other fruits and veggies. I got a 1970 ten dot I like very much. Yours is a beauty! Enjoy! I think you will like it. Keep after them. :)

You got that right, this one is the best green bone I have in the collection as of now, they do not seem to be as common as the redbone.

Thank you all for the comments ::tu:: ::tu::

As I posted in the Bombs thread, I just recieved this 1980 A6235 1/2 #35 pattern Jack knife from John (1967redrider). I've never held one of these puppys before this one but I REALLY like it! The length is perfect for a main EDC IMO. ::tu:: The main blade is pretty stout & it's altogether a bit beefier than most of the knives I have & that makes it feel like a real "Man's Knife" ::nod:: The scales are gorgeous but my pictures don't seem to show just how nice they truely are. I'm very happy & thankful to own such a beautiful piece of cutlery! ::nod:: I would Love to have some more of these 35's. ::tu:: :D This is now one of my favorit knife patterns! ::nod::

Thanks John! &
Thanks for looking! ::handshake:: :D
