Looks like it is a 63-5 pattern fixed blade hunting knife. Handles are referred to as jigged Green Bone. 5 inch blade, overall length 9 3/8 inch. Should be from approximately 1920-1940 date range.
In Jim Sargent's book "American Premium Guide to Knives & Razors, 7th Edition" there is a photo of a knife that looks nearly identical to yours on page 371.

Thanks for the reply, I definitely appreciate it. It’s a super sweet looking knife. I don’t normally go for fixed blades but I love the green bone handles on the old Case knives so I couldn’t pass it up.

It's a great looking knife, and not very common. It's certainly a treasure!
