Can anyone help identify this knife (bone handle color unsure) ? Can it be determined if this is a long pull? See attached pictures.

Nice old 2 blade Case XX cigar Jack, long pull, looks like green bone to me. Looks like someone liked (used) it a lot.

Thanks. I was guesssing green bone but wasn't sure. Yea someone used it for sure!! But the blades are really tight no wobble and handles have no cracks!!

Nice one. A knife like that has a lot of stories to tell. Put it in your pocket now and then and wait for it to start talkin' to ya.

There is a picture of one with the long pull on a spear blade, page 238 of Steve Pfeiffer's Case book.
It says: Case Tested 6294, "Large Cigar Jack", green bone-long pull, 4 1/4", $2,500.

Looks just like yours except for the wear. It's a shame yours ain't mint condition!
