Does anyone think this is a real CASE TESTED XX knife? I don't recall Waterfall scales being used on Case knives during the TESTED XX era, but I have seen them on earlier vintage CASE knives. Also, the stamp looks a little off and the tang might have been shaved.

That knife is a complete fake, made out of Kutmaster parts.

Case did use waterfall during that era, but that one is not a Case.

What would Case call this celluloid material? Mammoth Molar Waterfall? 🤭

Nice example of waterfall celluloid but as Steve said not so much on the knife.

Case used that stamp from approximately 1920 to post WWII (most references say 1920-1940 but it was used during and possibly after 1944).

To sell here you must have a premium membership - click on “Support AAPK” in the box on the upper right for details. The Case might bring more than the Camillus but condition issues prevent either from being very valuable. They’d both make decent users assuming they are mechanically sound (snap when opened and closed, blades don’t wobble, etc). eBay sold listings are the best resource for value.
