That's a terrible fake. Everything about it is wrong. You'd have to be pretty new to knives to not see it for what it is ::hmm::

This is a very beautiful and hard to find case knife. It has never been sharpened and looks just as good as the day it was bought. It is aprox 4inches long closed.

I think it's kind of weird. The hafting on the "rattlesnake" bone looks pretty good, but the shield is terrible. ::teary_eyes::

Let's see what's wrong. And this is from a noob who knows nothing about older Case knives.

Jigging wrong

Shield wrong

Stamps wrong.

Those nail nicks look like what I'd expect to see on a knife made by a guy called Pak I. Stan.

I notified the seller that the knife wasn’t right. Looks like he may have pulled the auction down. A good number of people with bad knives for sale are good honest people and this could be the case here. Unfortunately there is always a burn involved somewhere in the equation.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Good to see the seller believed you and cancelled all the bids and pulled the listing.

I think he called it a long pull because it ran right off the blade. lol
