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.

Pick up these newer ones at a antique store. Harold
A pair of excellent condition 07 Mini-Ts is always going to get Q's approval. Some how the local thrift/antique stores rarely have a knife that I'd even want for free.

My newest
A Queen made Case Classic green bone Whittler with carbon steel blades. Love it!
Yesterday I went to the estate sale of Leonard Watts. I didn't know Mr Watts, but now I feel a connection to him through one of his knives. He had a modest collection of pocket knives, and this Case 5375 was the centerpiece, in my opinion. It shows honest wear from use but not abuse. It was a bit grimy as seen in the first picture, but rock solid condition. I cleaned it up and sharpened it today and proudly put it in my pocket. Thank you Mr. Watts. I'll take good care of your knife.

Congratulations on a great find!
I'd be proud to carry that one too.
