From mid 1993 thru 1999, Case used the dot system to date the knives. There are 10 dots under the USA,but only 7 years to remove dots.what am I missing here?

There was only a special edition made called the missing dots knives that had ten dots and these were produced some time later.The knives that were produced in 90-91-92 said Bradford,Pa and 19USA90, 19USA91, 19USA92.

Similar to other decades. 7 dots=1993. 6 dots=1994.......1 dot=1999

So what is the date of this knife

So 4 dots =1996 right ?

Correct

Thank you for clearing that up for me.

Here's a link to the AAPK Research page that has info on dating Case knives. http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/con ... ification/

For future reference it can be accessed by clicking on Research up there ^ at the top of the page. There's more great info contained there than a person can digest, but I sometimes forget it's there.

I'm sure you already know this but just in case you don't:

Go to wrcase.com.
At the top of the page, click on "Case College".
Scroll down to "Tang Stamps" and click on that.
Click on whatever date section you're interested in and watch the image supersize to give you dates year by year.
