Hey Ricky,

Mine are not for sale but you may find some additional info here on a post of mine, if you like. Hard to find info on these knives. The knives in the set vary abit as you can tell.

viewtopic.php?f=66&t=32264&hilit=+jaguar

One note is that the red bone was only made 1 year as far as I know, in 1997'. Only 500 to 1500 pieces made depending on which of the seven you are referring to. Not sure which quantity of the two I mentioned were made in red bone though. Seen a few go on ebay but they don't pop up often based on number of knives made.

One additional note, the engraving on the pic you posted was done post factory. It is only on one side of the knife. Why, because serial number is on upper pile side bolster and they smartly chose not to try to engrave over that. Case engraved bolster knives had all blosters engraved to my knowledge and if serialized, number was stamped on the mark side blade above the shoulder.

Hope you can find one, they are nice knives!

Jerry

Hey Ricky,

I was just looking on ebay to see what a guy I buy several scarce Cheetahs from had, and low and behold, the knife you are looking for.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/CASE-JAGUAR-SWI ... 471wt_1566

I have no dog in this fight so I have no gain except to help you find the knife you requested. If you see the catalog pic I provided, they were $75 buck new from the factory.

This guy was good to deal with for me (4 or 5 of my 6 total ebay purchases) , but whatever happens is between you and him.

I would snatch that one up while I could if it were me. Not many made as I said.

Regards, Jerry

I've got one issued to members of the Case Collector's Club. I believe it dates to 1982. Let me know if you're interested.

As promised, here are a couple of pictures of my 51 pattern. Turns out it's a 5251 instead of a 5151, but I have a friend with a 5151 he's been wanting to sell me for some time now. With a little notice I could probably make a deal on both knives.
