Only the X's above and below the "CASE XX" on the ricasso ("tang stamp"). 2010 had five dots and five X's. One dot removed each year, and then the X's. You can find this info on the Case website.

Gary, you must be a pretty limber guy to be able to "stretch" for yellow like that!

LOL. Yeah, I knew it was a stretch! I do have my limber days though! They are increasingly less often.

All,

As we approach the close of another great round, I again want to say thank you to everyone for sharing your wonderful knives and fun comments.

I reckon this thread will either keep plugging along or fade into the archives but it sure has greatly exceeded all my expectations!

So long as it keeps going, I say that from here on out, be as creative as you see fit for meeting the day's letter.

Thanks again!

Not a rich seam for me the zee or zed, depending on your pronunciation

This whole thread will be a valuable reference work I feel, any newcomer asking about Traditional styles & patterns would do well to read through it, then file for bankruptcy in advance

Thanks very much It's a smooth cut type of polished Stag, here's the pile side and I THINK the blade MIGHT qualify as a ZULU SPEAR but not really sure
