Its prob. a Bradford or Tested with a Case Bros. main blade put in it.
Case Brothers never used that type of Tested Style Jigging or did they used a Case stamped shield.

The stamp to me looks like CASE BRADFORD on the main blade. Maybe the seller misinterpreted it as CASE BROS since it is so worn. I think the knife is all original.

Nice old frame and handles. It's just a shame the blades are so worn or a knife like that could bring in some big bucks.

If its says Case Bradford, I agree on it being correct.

B. Levine himself had some unkind words for this seller. I will not repeat his comments but there was no misunderstanding them.

Maybe this will help. Measurement is slightly off too. Shield is the same.

It's funny how sometimes people a thousand miles away can see a tang stamp better than one holding it in his hand.

I thought Bradford or Tested before I even looked at the stamp, because of the green bone, the shield, and the spun rivits. The knife also has a pattern # which is almost never seen on a tested, I've never seen it on a Case Bros, and it's quite common on a Bradford. That leaves the stamp on the main blade, My eyes are old and give out but picture #5 looks like a Case Bradford stamp to me too.
