year specific pattern list?

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

year specific pattern list?

Post by 313 Mike »

Is there a list available anywhere of Case knives produced by year? For example, I am trying to accumulate one of each Case knife pattern produced in 1972, 8 dots. Is there anywhere I could find a list of all the patterns produced that year? I have searched around on the Internet with no luck...

Case factory price list, 1972. This will show you all of the pocket knife patterns that Case had in production for the year of 1972. Any noted as discontinued were dropped as of the end of 1971 or prior to 1971 so were not in production in 1972.

It would be nice to be able to just go ahead and order all those for the prices on that list.

Same here Royal! It is kinda cool to have a knife in your pocket thats the same age as you are. Problem is, older I get the older those knives get, so the more $$ those knives get!
