Case xx question

#1

Post by adam569 »

I just bought the yellow handle copperlock best part was it turned out to be the large version. The first thing I noticed was no date marks on top of that the emblem is upside down. I just wanted to know if anybody had encountered this before? It came from a authorized dealer I've bought tons of knives from smoky mountain knife works.I know this ain't the forum for this but it's the only one I'm a member of :)

When you say the emblem is upside down, are you talking about the shield in the handle or the tang stamp? As far as date marks go, a clear photo of the tang stamp with the blade at half open would help a lot. Quite often the dots are not visible with the blade fully open.

One of the main complaints I have about Case Knives is that as of about 1987 or so they quit pinning their shields and started gluing them on. Most likely that one fell off and someone glued it on upside down.

The little Mini Copper lock would also be the perfect Ladies knife. Sometimes they have just freshly painted their nails or had a manicure and would be afraid of opening a knife due to possibly breaking or chipping a nail. With the easy open cutout you can catch the blade between thumb and forefinger tip on either hand and never ever touch it with a fingernail
