Edged Tools / Re: Case Knives
« Last post by IMR4198 on Today at 07:56:12 PM » I bet that old Case was used to cut twist. Tobacco is tough on knife blades. I think a 6347 was the last Case Stockman that I ever owned. I bought one for Dad. He had to have stainless. Unfortunately, he could never keep anything and next thing I knew he had sold it to someone. I scouted around and found one more. It cost $11 at the time. Way less than list, but I knew a guy. I told him that he couldn't sell it because it belonged to me. Carry it. Use it. Can't sell it. He agreed. About the time he retired, he had started carrying a Vic Tinker some. He said one of the guys at work (someone he always complained about) said he wanted Dad's Case when he retired. I said, "No way does Jim get MY knife. I already told you the deal."
Dad's gone. Case is gone. I still have the Tinker. Somehow I always felt like a jerk for taking the Case back. Best wishes. G
