I know this seller has more bad knives than the clearance bin at the local pawn shop, but is there a chance the wire jack is legit? My guess is Case blade in the Schrade wire jack frame?

His photos are really blurry--to perhaps hide the fact that, to me, that pin looks smooshed, meaning, probably, this is a replacement blade in the Wire Jack frame.

Why do I think I've seen this one floating around previously?

Re: Question - Case Wire Jack Knife
Case did indeed offer wire jacks in the Tested era, made on contract by Geo. Schrade. Authentic Case Tested examples exist but they are rare. Photos on that listing are so poor its hard to tell, but my guess is a cobbled knife.
