Case Brothers and Case Bradford question

[knife-nut]

http://cgi.ebay.com/OLD-CASE-BROS-CUT-C ... dZViewItem I thought these were two completely seperate companies. Supposedly there was hard feelings between them. How can there be a Case Bro. knife with a Case Bradford transition blade in it?

My guess would be left over blades?

I think Jim might be on the right track. W R Case and sons bought Case Bros tested trademark after they folded. They might have bought some or all of the parts, tools, and machinery. Back in those days they didn't throw away anything. I looked at the sellers other knives and found only one that I know enough about to state an opinion about. The Remington 1823 jack looks to be correct. If his knives are correct he is going to get less for them due to the pictures [jmo]. ::blah:: ::blah::

Those are all some fine looking knives!

Could be some good knives, I can't tell anything with those pictures.
