Missing 6 on 73 Cheetah
anyone ever heard of a 1973 Red Bone Cheetah missing the 6 in the pattern number?

Need pictures of what you’re describing. Go to the forum home page https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/, scroll down to AAPK Tips & Tricks, open it, then scroll down to find instructions for posting pictures from your device. It’s not difficult.

It could be a scale material that isn't bone.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Missing 6 on 73 Cheetah
Did Case use any handle material other than bone or Delrin on a Cheetah made in 1973? (both materials would still have a "6" in the pattern number.)

In the master's chamber they gather for the feast.
They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast.

I leave that question to the experts (Steve, Ken, some others)?

Pattern stamps were always light in that era, most likely a light stamp and uneven.
Thanks, Steve. I'm lost without a good reference book.

Most likely we will never see a picture as this was his first post.

Must be too busy searching for that missing "6"

Re: Missing 6 on 73 Cheetah
Sorry for the delay. I am a seller on eBay have been for 11 years. It is listed for sale there with lots of pics. I am not familiar with the navigation tools on this site. you can see the knife on eBay. My user name there is jerrr51 it is a beautiful red bone cheetah. Some of you may have purchased knives from me. A friend of mine named Craig Moore, he has passed now, sadly. He told me he had heard of a few only made in 1973. There is no number to be seen. so the handle material would be irrelevant. Thank you, guys and gals, for all the input. Kyle.

I have no clue how to search an eBay seller using my phone app. Can you provide a link? Thanks!
