Proud to say that Bradford Pa, on Owen's Way is where these gems are made and Is also my Hometown. I was born in Bradford Hospital. My grandfather worked for Case for forty years. He retired in the early seventies. He told me that when he started at Case he made $5.22 a day. When he retired he made $5.22 an hour. He gave me several Case Knives throughout my youth.

🟦... I have a "Sodbuster" with a black handle, I don't know what material it is,..I found it in the gutter alongside the road and the Very tip was broken off but everything else about it was fine! The only way I could turn it back into a decent knife was to reshape the blade as a 'Modified Sheepfoot' style blade,.. I lost a bit of length but ended up with an ultimately serviceable knife, but because of the handle width I can't carry it in my back pocket cuz it wears a hole in it pretty quickly!..as a result of which It's Definitely a "Front-Pocket" knife. ....( always wished it had a lock tho!).

I also still have a traditional Barlow. My favorite, probably the case but anyone of the three may be in my pocket at any one time.

When I bought my house I was adding a ice maker valve and I was on a ladder cutting into a copper line and when I went to lay my cutters down there was a pocket knife laying on top of the foundation wall. I got it down and cleaned it off and it was a case xx that has Coca Cola on one side and happy Father’s Day 1981 on the other. Still have it today.

Hello! Thanks for watching our video. Case knives are very cool and a lot of fun to collect. I have a Tiny Toothpick in mother of pearl. The best blade for sharpening and endurance, I believe, is carbon steel. The CV and Stainless blades stay prettier longer, however. If you're not really using the knives, then I suppose it doesn't matter. I've just noticed that the Carbon steel blades command a higher price in the market.

I don't collect or buy Case knives, back in the day just like today a case is not a REAL working man's knife. Everyone that I know that but these knives just put them in a drawer and brag about how many they have as a { bad } investment. In the 1970's and 1980's working men bought and USED Colonial , Buck , and Imperial knives. Great quality , price and those carbon steel blades stayed sharp.

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

I appreciate you watching our video and commenting. I have to respectfully disagree on several accounts, however. I have personally witnessed aged men in my community use a Case XX knife for years. They were of good quality; arguably of better quality earlier in production. They had good spring and good carbon steel. These men carried these knives for years and using them till their blades were worn thin. Concerning Case knives as an investment, it's worked really well for me. 🤣. I can't disagree with you on a good Buck knife, as they're a good blade too. However, Colonial and Imperial were not in the same ball park concerning quality. These, of course, are my opinions. We've all got our own and are welcome to them. Thanks again for watching.

Love the video! My friend got me started collecting case knives back in the 90’s. My favorites are canoes and trappers with either stag or bone handles. Older knives were very hard to find back then, I can’t imagine trying to find them now. When I started, old timers would always tell me that my knives weren’t “real case xx knives” because they said case changed sometime in the 60’s and the quality has never been as good since. Do you know more about that?

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

Thanks for watching; I'm glad you enjoyed it. The older knives are arguably better because of the craftsmanship and quality. Most old timers really liked the carbon steel knives of the 60s and before because they sharpened better. In 1993, the Case knife company was bought out by the Zippo lighter company. Many people didn't like that merger, but they're both great brands in their respective fields. Thanks again for watching!

I once had over 600 Case XX Peanuts! I thought I had a big collection! Then I met a gentleman who had over 1200 !!! I then decided to start selling off my collection! I believe he sold his collection to SMKW ?!?!

@BackPorchAntiques 2 месяца назад

I had no idea there were that many different peanuts. 😞🤣

India or sambar stag is about the only stuff you can buy. They must be big critters since I have 3 or four handguns that I installed the sambar stag on

I gave away my gun to carry a case knife in my pants everyday. It’s a synthetic yellow, 2 knife , 07 pattern number, 2022 8 dot case for the 2020-2029 decade. I got it at an ace hardware in western Washington. I plan to carry it everyday forever until in breaks or I loose it

Had one ,old. Was in a leather sheath also marked case. Terrific blade locking blade . I dropped it while fighting a salmon .... looked fir it for days but no luck..

Oh no! That's a bummer. If you have to lose it, that's a good way, though.

@woodsontr 7 месяцев назад

The blades have actual proper names. Sorry to be a critic. Thanks for the video!😉

@brandonshardman9990 4 месяца назад

The yellow handles are synthetic. Delrin is the name of the material it is made from. The stag handles are all Sambar stag which is native to India and has been embargo’d for some time now. The bone handles are NOT synthetic at all. They are natural Bovine bone mostly out of SouthAmerica because the breed has denser bone than many of the breeds raised in North America do. No Bone handled Case knife is synthetic bone. They do make a jigged Delrin handle working knife family that are brown in color amd the past couple years thwy have made a jigged black family and a jigged white family of Case knifes as well. Great video. Not nitpicking you just trying to help.

Yes! The simpler times were better in many ways. The nostalgia of it all is why I love fooling with this old stuff. Every piece is a memory.

The Russ Lock is named after Russell Case. He designed it.

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

Seems like I knew that somewhere back in the archives of my brain at some point. It's definitely a good point worth making. It has good styling. He did a good job.

@RADrockitpsyence Год назад

Indeed. Tommy Hart, case designer and craftsman for 40 years, has since passed, designed this knife. The year 2000. Pattern 1953L, L for locking, and the year William Russel Case passed, 1953. To family friends and co-workers, mr Casr was simply known as "Russ" Fitting tribute

@thomasgentry6201 9 месяцев назад

Retired USN even in early 82 everybody knew Case was King and Buck was Crap! Boatswain Mates uses like me a Knife everyday and carried like a Marine carries a Rifle. Lock Blades are underrated but if you use constantly a Smart necessity! Few Finger parts missing! First video watched liked very much!

@mikereilly7629 Год назад

I have an old Case knife, still tight,sharp ,walks and talks... the Case stamp is not in the curled C logo. Says simply Case X X. Smooth as butter to the touch, spent years on the belt of a WW2 veteran, not sure on the age... any ideas?

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

If the "XX" is on the same line as the "Case" it's probably 1970s. If it's under the name, it's probably 1940 to 1964. I'm sure it's an honor to own anything tamed by a ww2 veteran. Absolutely the greatest generation!

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

Thank you for your service! There's definitely a difference in using a knife and looking at one. Hard to best a Gerber for utility.

The large Toothpick is much more than $80. More like $180-$220 on the aftermarket.

@BackPorchAntiques 2 года назад

Awesome. My goal in buying and sourcing is to be able to make money while selling cheap. Everyone is happy that way. I may be a little light on that one, but I won't price it much more than that! Thanks for watching and commenting!

@bernardwhite8991 Год назад

Have you had any problems with quality lately with gaps and centering I have been collecting for 60 years some of the new ones are terrible most hard core collectors will agree on that point

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

Not that I can recall, but that wouldn't surprise me.

@nitrorc4life1 Год назад

I am a collector for decades and I agree. I will ONLY buy a case if I can handle and inspect before buying, and it is time for a steel upgrade imo, but not a deal breaker.

@nitrorc4life1 Год назад

@@BackPorchAntiques If you are knife enthusiast,, especially traditional slipjoints. Then you have heard collectors complaining on Case fit and finish AND QC lacking issues for years now.

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

I don't disagree that modern fit and finish is sub par on occasion. We focus mainly on older knives, however, that do not show those issues as much. We like the old ones!

@floydmayes4924 Год назад

I can tell you the number one consideration for me. If the blade isn't stainless steel, the knife is useless!

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

That's interesting. Most people prefer the carbon steel. The stainless stays pretty, however.

@UltraMagaFan 5 месяцев назад

Ever since Case was bought out by Zippo in 1993 their quality has continued to drop. I just stopped buying these knives outright. They go for a premium price without the quality to match. If I want a slip joint i normally go for an Imperial, USA made Schrade, Colonial, Sabre, Queen, Boker, Bear & Son, or a Buck knife.

I have a Case xx Christmas edition trapper I think it’s very rare if anyone could give me some info about it I’d appreciate it. I’ve looked it up and haven’t even been able to find a picture of one. It’s brand new never been used sharpened or anything I have the original box rust preventing paper and the original owners manual

@BackPorchAntiques 24 дня назад

I'd have to see it, but it sounds like a case select version. They made a Christmas tree coloring in that series that was absolutely gorgeous. Some of the earlier types of those handles would "off-gas" destroying the handles and other knives around it. You may want to give that a quick search. Thanks for watching.

@BackPorchAntiques Год назад

The fact that they tarnish proves their quality. The stainless steel, in my opinion, is a lesser metal and the carbon steel sharpens well and lasts, even though it will tarnish.
