Just took a picture of the knife not for sure how to post the the listing from EBay. Looked at all my old case knife reference books but I don’t see any tested knives that have handles with jigging like this one. I collect xx and USA but never messed with any older case knives. Never new enough about them to want to collect and always afraid of getting burned on a fake. Seems like they been counterfeit them since I started collecting in early 70s. I know I have seen this handle before on a whittler pattern like this before . Maybe it’s not fake but just made in the Kentucky Case factory. Just kidding. Nobody posted this knife on counterfeit so wanted you guys to tell me good or bad.

I think this is the knife you question? I don't like the shield which almost guarantees you it is correct.

I am suspicious of the shield, the jigging and the blades.

The knife was still up this morning had 1 day to go and had 9 bidders was already at 356 dollars. Glad it was taken down it saved someone from a bad deal. Those kind of knives would make a new collector stop collecting.

That knife is a disaster! To think that someone would bid $356 for it amazes me.

I been enjoying this site for years but never joined the web site or posted anything till I retired. I have been collecting for years but learn something new on here everyday. I was hesitant about posting someone’s knife on here. Didn’t want to accuse someone of trying sell a bad knife. Saw the knife several days ago and saw there was a lot of bidders and it just kept getting to a crazy price . Glad I posted it hope it saved someone from being really disappointed when they found out .

"Fake"--rumble strip jigging--primary blade shape wrong--tang stamp wrong--shield lettering not uniform......
