Good choice mate.

Really likening the blue bones case is doing. My opinion they don’t put enough out.

Looks beautiful Derek!

I have handled a lot of knives but this is the 1st one of these I have seen. Let me know if anyone else here has other examples of this pattern, and as always,

Thanks for looking

Tom,

Here is a slick black 2234 I've had for some years now. The handles on your knife look like newer handles but it could just be the lighting and pictures. This knife is uncleaned and blades are near full. I believe this pattern was discontinued very early in the Tested time frame as witnessed by both blades being stamped.

Wayne, nice knife. I agree about the early discontinuation as most Tested era knives are of course stamped on the master blade only. Interesting that both of ours are stamped on both blades. Usually that is a red flag but I knew the knife was authentic. You are correct about the handles on my knife. They are replacements. Also interesting that a lot of very experienced Case collectors have told me they had never encountered the pattern before as well. Thanks for posting yours.

I really like that version of a Doctor's knife!

My wife picked this Case 8233 Pearl Pen Knife up for me today. Good woman she is.

Any time the lady picks up pearl for her man it’s a fine day. Yes sir.

Beautiful knife!

A wife that supports a man's addictions is worth more than her weight in gold! Looks like you have one. She's a keeper!

Tom

LB1947 she appears to be a keeper!

I was at a local gunshow this morning, one of the best ones in the region in my opinion. Forks of the Delaware antique gun collectors sponser the show at Agricultural Hall at the Allentown Fairgrounds. A very nice Farmers Market is across the parking lot. Anyway, I picked up the pictured Case XX Stainless M5 Finn fixed blade. Not mint but pretty nice nonetheless. These Minnies could be addictive
Piked up 2 Kabars too, look in the board if interested.

Cool looking "litte" knife Steve. I like smaller knives anyways. Nice handle on it! I'd say that's a Touchdown!!!
Like that tape mesure with inches & centimetres on it. Gotta get me one of those.

Tom

Thanks Tom, they are fun knives.
The metric system and myself have a nodding acquaintance. If it wasn't for mm based cartridges, there wouldn't hardly be any at all.

This peanut was screaming at me. Love this Appaloosa bone, one of the prettiest I’ve ever seen. Hard to believe this knife is 40 years old, Case XX 1 dot.

Wow - SSK - I agree - love it!

big fan of nice appaloosa - that one is outstanding

Very Kool p-nut !!!

+1 SSK, that is an attractive 'nut.

Nice knife, Chris!
