Another 6308 dating to '65 to '69 era.

My new favorite Case...

1940-1964 62009 1/2

 

[thedonald]

another whittler...this from 1976 and it is a 6383. It's between the 6308 and 6380, size wise.

Perhaps I should have waited to post these on "Whittler Wednesday." This is
the large 6380 whittler from 1976.

You can post a 6380 any time, IMO, Donald!! I love those whittlers!!

Here is a Cattle pattern from 1987, an NKCA club knife. '87 was a mediocre time for Case - their grinds and fit & finish were not up to their best. This knife sits in my safe with better examples of Case, grumbling because it gets no attention!!

I've not seen a shield like that on a Case knife. The patina on this knife is excellent.

This one just arrived next day air because I’m so patient
SMKW Exclusive Case Trapper Test pilot run less then 500 made, 1095 blade steel with burlap Micarta covers. Folks I think I just hit the lottery it is perfect in every possible way. Blades are dead centered with no blade run with Beautiful walk and talk right out of the box! I will let the pictures do the talking but this one checks everything box possible.The back springs are nice and snug to.
I can not stop smiling omg it’s nice
