Case knife identification

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.

Your knife is a WW2 era knife. It was not issued to troops but was available for private purchase and in PX stores. Your blade is fairly worn by sharpening but it is a cool knife.

Maybe 10-15 bucks? It is quite worn and rusty and the sheath doesn't look original. Sadly it is not collector quality.
