Thanks Keith I was excited when I saw it tucked away in the bottom of the box that the knife came delivered in. I was amazed, did not expect it. I do not think the seller knew it was there either. Thanks nice to hear from you sir !!

Here's one I have, stamped G. SCHRADE KNIFE CO. INC B'PORT. CT USA with patent dates on the pile side. If you sharped these too much the little finger attached to the ball-pull won't cover the tip, then the blade won't stay closed. :(

This one works perfectly. ::tu::

Not quite a pull ball auto but rather a pull tab manual.Three of them have the pull on the end and two(English made)have a sliding pull button.

You gotta love those pull balls!
I have a dozen of those in my collection. I wanted to show two of my more unusual stampings. This is the only one that I have owned where the tang is stamped stainless and the handle is plastic. I have seen the where both the handles and blade are stainless.
I got this Case XX pull ball on eBay about 15 years ago. I only recognized it because of the rear tang stamp. Case tested was ground off the front side. I was told that this was because it was a factory second? I don't know for sure.

Nice collection, do you have the one with the file across the blade spine? I’ve only seen 2 of them in 40 years but not lately

I don't have one with a file across the spine. I have only seen photos. Have you ever seen one like this before? Not mine, I got outbid on eBay by a large amount over 15 years ago.

Wow ! That’s one I’ve not seen, is that scissor stamped on the tang ? I’d like to see the mark if possible. Thanks for sharing it !

I don't have any other photos of that knife. That one sold on eBay in 2007 for $242.50. In the past 20 years, I have saved photos with the prices knives sold for in a folder for future reference. I can't remember for sure if it had a tang stamp. At that price, there is a good chance it had a stamp.
