There were several nice Case knives. However the Diamond Jubilee knife had a lighting SS stamp instead of the 1 dot.
There was also a early 70's stockman that seemed a bit odd as well. It was a 3 blade knife probably a 32 pattern.
I opened the knife to the half stop & tiny little sliver of metal came off the raised backspring and stuck in my hand.
Carefully running my thumb along the raised part, that edge seemed very sharp to me. Also, considering the size the knife it had very little weight/heft.
It just didn't seem like a quality made frame to me although the blades were very nice. It was either a 8 or 9 dot knife.
So the question is did I talk myself out of a couple of good knives ?
An 80's stamp on the Jubilee knife & med-lrg stockman with no heft scared me off just enough that I passed on all the Case knives in that group.
They were probably OK but I am a bit leary of fake knives.
On the plus side
