by Modern Slip Joints
Case's model name for their 11 Pattern with a backlock and swing guard is Cheetah whether or not the knife is etched Cheetah so all 5111 1/2L swing guard knives are Cheetahs. I own a 6211 SS jack knife that was originally sold through a collectors club that was to make a modern version of a model that had not been made for a long time affordable for collectors. If I recall correctly a long time ago the slip joint was also made with only one blade. The slip joints are not called Cheetahs. I'd describe a lockback 11 patern without a swing guard as a Cheetah without a swing guard but I do not know if Case named them Cheetah.
