Do YOU have a CASE XX knife in YOUR pocket today?????

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Case and John Deere...an awesome combo!

I have these two in my pockets (each in a pocket by itself!) today: yellow Sod Buster Jr. and gray synthetic Peanut. Hopefully Jtx won't mind my shamelessly imitating his coffee mug photo.

Hey man, as long as it still has some of its teeth, the broken bone and the slotted screwdriver tip on the master clip blade make that 031 a true Redneck special! :lol:

That is a knife with an abundance of character. If you know the whole story behind it, I'd like to hear.

Wish I had a good story to tell you but that's the way it came to me...I've thought about filling in the missing bone but kinda like how it looks...but just doesn't feel that good in the hand when using

The yellow CV Sod Buster Jr. and gray Peanut came out of my pockets late last night, as they're making a temporary return to their birth state. Because I refuse to be without a knife very long, these two are now in my pockets.

Been in my pocket (watch pocket) ever sense Wade gave it to me. It's almost too large for the watch pocket but I don't want it bangin' around in my pocket with all the other crapola I carry.

Thanks guys....I have a handful of Case knives that belonged to him. I gave him a 5318 in the mid 90s and he reached in his pocket and gave me his 6392 (65-69) that he carried every day. I carried it for a while but decided to put it away before I did something stupid and lost it. The others my grandmother gave to me after he passed away...said "take Johnnie's old knives from his dresser drawer, don't think they're any good, he either wore 'em out or broke 'em. This 31 looked like it had been run over, the frame kinda smooshed and the blades a bit wobbly. So glad to be able to carry and use it again.
