2024 S.H.O.T. Show Special
Case® has delivered their final 2024 S.H.O.T. Show special. They have chosen a knife that is also part of their XX Vault® program. Every year they choose a knife pattern that they bring out of the vault. They produce that pattern in several handle materials and after the year is over they return that pattern to the vault and will not produce it again for a number of years. The knife chosen for 2024 was the Razor. That, and the fact that this version is one of the S.H.O.T. Show specials which are offered only to those dealers who place an order at the S.H.O.T. Show in January, makes this a very unique and collectible Case folder.
This Razor pattern reminds a person of a Barlow with the elongated bolster creating a timeless look and feel. The two blades are a 3" one hand/razor blade and a 2-1/4" pen blade. Both are mirror polished Tru-Sharp™ surgical steel at 54-57 Rc. Measures 3-7/8" closed. Weighs 3.5 oz. Made in the U.S.A. Suggested retail is $117.70.

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.
