Case Brothers Commemorative Series John D. Case

[knifelady1]

I'm not having much luck trying to research this Case Brothers commemorative series of knives. We have a John D. Case Muskrat ( I think) , a Jean Case copperhead and a Andrew J. Case trapper. All are red jigged bone. Paperwork shows limited edition of 1000 and they are in a wooden display box . I know there were four knives in this set. Can someone tell me the name of the forth person . I would like to try to complete this set.

I'm not familiar with this commemorative set but it would stand to reason that it would be their other brother W.R. Case. Jean was my Great Grandfather and President of Case Brothers.
Regards, John

Welcome to AAPK knifelady. I’m not familiar with that set but John’s answer makes sense. John, Jean, and Andrew Case were three of the four “Case Brothers”, William Russell (W.R.) was the fourth, and oldest, brother.

If you want confirmation or other info about the set send an inquiry to Case. You can email them at consumer-relations@wrcase.com.

I found these knives in the Shepherd Hills 2003 winter catalog no.26. The fourth one is W.R. Case and it is a sowbelly. They are all in separate wooden boxes and they sold for $127.99 each.

This may be a bit late but yes, it is W.R. Case and it's a Russell old red jigged bone Sowbelly. I currently have all 4 in there wooden box and original cardboard boxes labeled. This particular sowbelly is marked TB6339 SS both on blade tang and sticker. Then on stamped sticker the number is written in pen, mine for example on the sowbelly is 0119
