Case "transition" Canoe 52131
Posted: Wed Jan 30, 2019 12:55 am
The Case Canoe in this eBay listing looks off to me. Here are some of the reasons.
1. Shield looks homemade to me. It looks too large and not elliptical enough. The inner oval groove and the lettering doesn't look right.
2, Blade stamping doesn't look right. The pattern number looks too "scrunched" together and the 2 numeral "1" are missing the top serif.
3. The shape of the spear blade looks off to me and it sits too high out of the frame when closed.
Other observations are welcomed

The frame looks a bit odd too.perhaps that is why the master appears to sit high.
