Case Vintage Flag Copperhead
Item #: CS-36031
$79.95
W. R. Case and Sons® is probably the most collected knife brand in America. This brand has been used and collected for over 100 years and, with the exception of a few forays into the modern tactical market, has always been made in the U.S.A. At the beginning of 2021 Case offered a new series called the Vintage Flag Series. These knives each have a natural bone handle that is carefully color washed in wavy ribbons of red, white and blue. The American flag artwork appears on both sides of the handle.
The 3" wharncliffe blade and 2-1/4" pen blade are made of Case's own mirror polished Tru-Sharp surgical stainless at 54-57 Rc. The nickel silver bolsters and brass liners really enhance the vintage look. Measures 3-7/8" closed. Weighs 3.1 oz. Made in the U.S.A. Suggested retail $146.50.

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.
