::tu:: ::tu:: IMHO the single best resource available for older (pre-1970) knives, especially Case, but also other brands. The photographs of various patterns are indispensable.

These books are some of the best resources that can be found for older Case knives. Also a lot of information and photos of Remington, Robeson, Queen, and other brands. Jim was a very dear friend of mine and he taught me much of what I know today during a friendship that lasted over 15 years. I miss spending all the hours with him in his shop and I miss the opportunities to handle literally thousands of pieces of antique cutlery and he always had time for questions. I use his books often. Thanks for sharing the photos of your books. They bring back lots of memories. Rick.

Great collection ! looking for information on an older case Bradford knife . I think it may be on page 127 of Jim’s 7th edition but I only have the 2nd and 3rd editions ..If one of y’all could snap a photo of the page and post it for me for a reference point that would be fantastic . Thanks
