This is a new revelation to me! I always thought the 6275 was what we know as a “Moose”, clip on front and long spay on back. Just looking at this great knife without a ruler I would have thought it to be a 6292. Learn something new every day.XxTestedxX wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 3:40 am W.R CASE & SONS

I agree, I’d assume 92 as well. The pen variation is pretty uncommon.treefarmer wrote: ↑Fri Feb 05, 2021 2:08 amThis is a new revelation to me!

Good score, fantastic bone. Glad that you could finally get to a knife show.Papa Bones wrote: ↑Sat Feb 06, 2021 12:25 am Went to a knife show about 50 miles from me today. Was refreshing to get out to one for sure. Met some good folks and there were some decent deals around. Picked this one up while I was there. A 1971 Case 6143 Big Daddy Barlow pattern in Red Bone. Blade is tight with awesome snap. Does have some scratches & spotting, but are full and sharp. The Red Bone Handles are very nice with no cracks.

Very nice indeed! The pile side looks like a cross between Appaloosa & Red Stag...Beauty!
Thanks Floyd.
Thanks "Q", and that's what I like about some of the older Case handles.
No worries about that, it will get some pocket time ... from time to time.treefarmer wrote: ↑Sat Feb 06, 2021 1:31 am If I had that pretty red Case, I'm afraid I'd have to make it into a EDC! That looks to be a real work horse. Congratulations, Papa Bones!

Appreciate it. Funny you should say that, I do keep a selection of my edc knives on the edge of the mantle in our living room.
. Each and every Case is a winner!! 
Congrats Gents!!!

Two very nice additions, indeed. I really like that 6111½. Not sure exactly what the color of yours is called, but to me the bone sure looks like what Case called "Indian Paintbrush". I haven't collected Cheetahs for a few years now, but back when I was collecting them that color was pretty scarce & hard to find. Def one of my favs.
Brings back some good memories. Nice score on the Hunter Green Baby Butterbean, Tom. Love the deep, rich color of that bone.
Thanks & Good deal Buddy! The "Sting Ray" shield it is!QTCut5 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 07, 2021 5:57 pmTwo very nice additions, indeed. I really like that 6111½.

FWIW - I have tried to find out the "official" name for that particular shield, but no one seems to know exactly what it's called. I've seen/heard it called "Brass Lamp" (I guess because it resembles the fabled Aladdin's "genie lamp"), "Celebration Shield" (no idea why) and a few other less memorable names that I can't recall at the moment. Personally, I call it a "Sting Ray" shield...because...well...that's what it looks like to me.
I too am curious about what to call that shield (like it very much) so I sent an inquiry to Case. Stay tuned for the results of said inquiry.QTCut5 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 07, 2021 5:57 pm

Nice find!dirtyfonzie wrote: ↑Fri Feb 12, 2021 7:15 pm Picked this up a few months ago but didn't really look at it too much. A Case Tested XX stamping I don't see very often. The scales are a black plastic much like the rough black. I think this was one of Case's "economy" offerings at the time. Never used and still has factory edge.
Anyone have any info on these? Steve still around these parts?
Congrats! Gorgeous, congrats, consider yourself lucky too, they cancelled all the knife shows I go to out here on the West Coast. Big bummer, glad you don't have that problem. Such pretty bones too.Papa Bones wrote: ↑Sat Feb 06, 2021 12:25 am Went to a knife show about 50 miles from me today. Was refreshing to get out to one for sure.
