Flat grind 6265?

Post by foldinghunter »

From the info on this site, I see no reference to a flat grind 2 blade folding hunter. Is this true?

In the Tested and XX stamps you will find both flat and saber grind master blades on the 65. Both are correct; the flat grind is somewhat rarer.

Thanks. On this site's price guide I only see a flat grind 6165, a single-bladed model. I can see it would be a MONUMENTAL job to list and value every Case knife, given the amount of models, years, tang stamps, handle or blade variations, SFO's etc. Keep up the good work. ::tu::

I have been watching this one also; wondering why the bidding hasn't gone higher? Looks good to me; am I missing something?

Cleaned to death and they're a bunch of 65 patterns out there. Even though it's a "flat" cleaned knives aren't as popular as they were a few years ago ::ds:: ::ds::

Thanks Perry, I didn't win it anyway maybe that's a good thing. :wink: I like the 65 pattern; :) but a near mint/mint would be waaaay out of my budget. :( I wouldn't mine having a Tested era 65 with nice full blades; cleaned or not. ::ds::
