Pre 1920 case 165

I need expert advice. Is this jigged bone or second cut stag? Thanks.

Looks like bone...can you show the back?

Rare to find a 65 pattern in Case Bradford.

Bone

It's a Burrell/Case family knife. An heirloom.

Very cool knife John!! I was wondering if you made the Case kitchen knives Steve (Knifeaholic) has for sale a few posts down?? If I remember, I think you said Burrell made some knives for Case.

[johnburrell]

Gene, we sure made a lot of them. Back when Russell Osborne was President, we made all of their household. I remember delivering to the Quonset hut at the old Foster Brook facility. I’ll have to look at the ones your talking about.

Gene, I’m not finding Steve’s post. What’s the topic?

John, It is in" Knives for Sale or Trade" That 65 is an old Beauty.

I have only seen maybe 3-4 CASE BRADFORD stamped 65 patterns.

Gene,
Yes we did make that Early American line. Those are great knives.

Thanks John, I had thought you told me when we were in Little Valley you had made a lot of knives for Case, just wasn't sure of the era. I suppose my Case steak knives with wood slab scales I purchased new in the early 1970s were actually Burrell Cut Co made knives too.
