There are no dots on this now it just says Case XX
And from what I gather the swing guard was not added until after 64 the model number is 511 and 1/2

At the risk of seeming, or being, offensive, your photos are so blurry that they offer no way to help you with this question.
You might try again using a tripod, or whatever.

I agree with Ray that the pictures provided are poor. However I’m sorry to say I see enough to determine the knife is not likely an authentic Case knife, 6111-1/2 or otherwise. The Case “Cheetah” (11-1/2 pattern) lock release is closer to the center of the handle, not toward the butt end like the pictured knife. The knife shown appears to have a dentate (match striker) pull, but I’ve never seen a Case of any pattern with a dentate pull. The shield looks to be too small, and located too close to the bolster. (It’s also upside down, but that happens occasionally). Although Case made the 11-1/2 with both saber and hollow ground blades, either way it shouldn’t have a curved upward line on the shoulder grind. The tang appears to have been grinded down (to remove whatever stamp was originally there) and the CASE stamp applied. Probably a cold stamp but difficult to judge from a blurry picture.

Last but not least the statement “the swing guard was not added until after 64” is incorrect. Case made the pattern with the swing guard during the TESTED XX era.

Sorry to disappoint you. Better pictures might help, but that’s what I see from those provided.

The OP knife is a very bad fake.
