I was recently told this Case Bros Little Valley NY was a fake and I don’t know enough to argue that point. So I’d appreciate everyone’s thoughts on it.

Can't figure out what those weird lines on the blade are, probably some one will come along with the answer to that.

Can't remember ever seeing that handle material on an old Case, but it does look old.

Hello Aaron43 and Welcome to the AAPK!

I'm still pretty new to collecting myself so I'll leave it up to the others with more knowledge to comment on your knife. Looks nice to me. I'm sure someone will happen along soon to give you some answers.

Anyways, we are glad that you came. Stick around, theres a lot of good folks here.

Talk to ya soon,
Tom

Beautiful knife, chaysons, and a fine photograph. But what really hit me was that old-timey wooden folding rule in the photo. It brought back many memories of my childhood, when I spent many hours playing with my father's. It occurs to me that I haven't seen one in decades.
