I've noticed that some Case Canoe's have the "Indian-in-the-Canoe" blade embellishment and some don't. Anyone know why?

Probably the same reason some have embellished bolsters, some have long pulls, some have...
You get the idea. Anyway, just a guess on my part.

Steve Pfeiffer says in his book the etched blade on the 131 pattern was introduced in 1974 to appeal to collectors and continued for years on those having CV blades.

I think that they only do the "Indian" etch on the standard product 62131 in bone/CV.
They may be forced to stop due to PC issues, the way things are going these days.
