Can yall help me learn more about this knife? TIA!

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Good afternoon everyone! I just recently acquired a knife. Seller said 1920’s-1934ish. But I believe it’s just a worn 1970’s but not sure. Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks yall!

What is the overall length and length of the blade only? Many look alike in photos but dimensions are an important difference. (Please measure carefully and advise. Don’t just throw it down next to a ruler and expect the viewer to guesstimate - photography angles can be tricky!).

I’m not exactly sure. Friend asked me if I wanted it and he didn’t know exactly what it was either. I can post measurements when it gets here. He thought it was a 5025, but completely unsure.
