Need pictures for identification. Clear, in focus pics of the entire knife and any markings on it.

4 dot indicates 1986


pattern number 3254 should be a full size trapper in yellow delrin handle covers.

The stamps are way different than the one you posted

I didn't post a stamp. I posted a product description from a knife shop along with their catalog picture of the knife they have for sale.

The knife in your pictures is a trapper, but with a pocket clip. But I think the date I provided is off. In 1986 Case was not using straight carbon steel. Their non-stainless blades were marked "CV" for "Chrome Vanadium" steel. Yours is marked "C" for "Carbon Steel. Case only recently switched to straight carbon steel, so that's a recently made knife.

I knew it was made of carbon steel cuz it has the cs under the number but I have not seen any that have an extra c after the number, it also says when I look it up that they used carbon steel back in the 1940 to 1965 ones also so I'm a little stumped

I see 8 dots. Looks like a 2022 model.

The “C” after 3254 most likely stands for Clip if the pocket clip was installed at the factory, which I think is a good possibility. If it’s a do it yourself clip then I have no idea what the C means.

C stand for a pocket clip.
