Nice TOPDOG! Usually (not always) the oval around the Case logo in the shield indicates bone.

Thanks TMK! ::handshake:: Also, ::hmm:: I recall reading that the #6 in pattern number was for bone (The first number indicates the type of material used to make the handle) .... but I think it also extended to Jigged Synthetic & Jigged Laminate.

P.S. I have not commented yet on your Case XX EDC for today .... ::paranoid:: .... but if I do... I will it get ::tu:: ::tu:: Very sweet indeed! ::nod::

Yep, it can get confusing though. Here is a 1978 example that is Delrin. They also use the 6 as the first digit in the model for "synthetic bone". It's one without the oval around the logo. And thanks, I do like that 18 I posted.

That 1978 is nice! ::nod:: ... ::hmm:: Years ago, I was really excited that I had so many "bone" Case pocket knives .... :oops: .... 😪 until I looked in a book and saw how that 'ol "6" could mean so many other things.... ::doh::

P.S. If you remember seeing a middle-aged guy with an iPhone in his hand, a Blue tooth era bud and an Apple watch at your High School graduation with several knife cases on his belt .... you'll know I worked out all the kinks... :wink:

. Me thinks that both Remington and Western used bone from Rogers .A name most folks associate more in descriptions of older case knifes. “Rogers bone” . 😂
