W. R. Case and Sons® have been producing knives for over 100 years and their brand is absolutely one of the most well known. For generations many "firsts" in pocketknives have been Case® knives. These knives are still being handed down from father to son and from grandfather to grandson.
The Premium Stockman or Stock Knife is a serpentine shaped double end pocketknife that typically has two springs and three blades. The master blade is traditionally some type of clip point, the second usually a spey and the remaining blade can be a pen, sheepfoot or harness punch. This version has a 2-1/2" clip point blade, 1-7/8" sheepsfoot blade and a 1-3/4" spey blade. Bolsters are nickel silver and liners are brass. Closed length measures 3-5/8". Weighs 2.3 oz.
The knife is made with Case's own Tru-Sharp stainless steel at 54-57 Rc. with nickel silver bolsters and shield, and brass liners. The bone handles have been dyed a nice shade of blue and have been jigged. Made in the U.S.A.

Case Knives
W. R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company is an American manufacturer of traditional pocket knives, limited edition commemoratives and collectibles. It makes American made traditional pocket knives in a variety of patterns, blade styles, and handle materials. They are particularly well known for their specialized dying process - creating beautiful and colorful bone handles. Case prefers to use their proprietary Tru-Sharp stainless steel. Tru-Sharp sharpens and polishes easily and is enjoyed by collectors all over.
The roots of the company span all the way back to 1889. W.,R. Case & Sons notably made knives in World War 1, notably the M3 Fighting Knife for servicemen and the V-42 stiletto for the Devil’s Brigade. They also made knives for NASA astronauts for when they touched back down on earth and were waiting to be picked up. The Case Company is currently owned by the Zippo Manufacturing Company, based in the same city, which is well known for their Zippo lighters. You can see great synergy between the companies as they share equipment and expertise like inlaid dyed bone handles and laser engraving machinery.
