These knives are really great, what a collection. I have an old W R Case & Sons penknife with this type of shield on it and was wondering if it was legit. The picture of your old knives helped to confirm to me that it is. Thanks.

Tom, thank you for showing your nice old Case knife. ::tu:: ::tu:: Bare head stag seems like a rare Case configuration - I can't recall if I have seen that before.

Thanks, Ken, Jerry, and Mike ,interesting, I don’t believe I have seen the barehead stag as well, plus this one is torched. Very unique handles but they appear original. ::tu::

I picked this one up from the Blade show. It is a Case Bros Little Valley 1900-1914 Stag jumbo whittler. It is a hand full and I really like the Stag.

Thanks for looking ::tu::

Her is another pickup from the blade show A Red Winterbottom Small Coke 6225 1905 1914 W R Case & Sons. May be a Salesman's Sample as there is remnants of ink next to the tang.

Thanks for looking ::tu:: ::tu::

Wow Tom this is great find. Do you think the pattern would be 53076? The spear blade is awesome. ::tu:: ::tu::

Jerry,
That was my 1st thought when I saw it but the length is 3 9/16” closed whereas the 076 is 4”. I believe it is a 6370 jumbo sleeve board whittler. Only one I have encountered ::tu::

Tom, I think you are right with the 70 pattern. In addition to matching on the length that awesomely swedged and sturdy looking spear blade matches to the reference pictures I found for a 6370. Great add to your pre 1920 collection!
