<p>Hello, I am looking for help with a Case knife that I have. Here is what I do know about the knife, it is 6 1/2” unfolded and the single blade is 3”. The stamp on the tang says W.R. CASE & SONS BRADFORD PA. I know from this stamp it was made between 1905-1914. Any other information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you </p>

<p>I don't know if you have ever attended a Case event but the early morning line up is as much fun as the event itself. I did not want to wake Donnie up early so I hitched a ride with Ronnie Newsome and his wonderful bride!</p>
<p>The knife talkin' & swappin' going on before 8 am is made fun by the love of knives hanging out on this porch.</p>
<p>So here is a few few shots of how SMKW gets set up for an event like this event and how the line looked before the doors opened.…</p>

<p>So i have been working on my case civil war set starting with the confederate knives. So the frame isnt meant for this set but i got it at an auction for a great price. So by the time i had the money to complete the set they were out of 3 of the first run knives. Now i am trying to find a first run small texas toothpick. Med stockman. And russlock. I hope this picture loaded ok…</p>

<p></p> Case 75 pattern knives unusual inscriptions.tag:iknifecollector.com,2014-10-03:3181080:Topic:11984212014-10-03T05:34:29.742ZDerek Wellshttps://iknifecollector.com/profile/DerekWells
<p>I have a couple of late 80’s Case 75 pattern knives that have some interesting inscriptions and I am hoping the combined knowledge here on the forum may be able to throw some light on where/why/how/who etc.</p>
<p>I purchased these in the mid 90’s at a custom knife show in Sydney Australia – Note that Case knives have never been commonly available here (and still aren’t) so I swooped on these. I am assuming they had been brought in from the USA or perhaps left here gifted to someone by an…</p>

<p>I purchased these in the mid 90’s at a custom knife show in Sydney Australia – Note that Case knives have never been commonly available here (and still aren’t) so I swooped on these. I am assuming they had been brought in from the USA or perhaps left here gifted to someone by an American serviceman (only conjecture by me)</p>
<p>First is a 6375 Jumbo Stockman – 4 ¼ inch Red Bone with squared bolsters. Standard Stockman blade configuration the main clip blade has “CASE XX TESTED CENTENNIAL 1889 1989” Etched on it.</p>
<p>On the back spring the following is inscribed… “R.W.H. DE OPPRESSO LIBER” De Oppresso Liber being the US Army Special Forces motto The RWH could be someone’s initials (?) or could be a Unit of the Special Forces (?)</p>
<p>The Second knife is a 6275 4 ¼ inch with black (?) bone scales, squared bolsters the ricaso is stamped</p>
<p>“CASE XX ….. (5 dots) USA” with the “S” being like a lightning bolt</p>
<p>Two blades the standard Clip and a long Spay I think it is called the “Moose” version. This has the same “R.W.H. DE OPPRESSO LIBER” on the back spring but then to add to the Questions the front bolster has “OYATE” on one side and “TYOSPAYE” on the other side.</p>
<p>MR GOOGLE tells me these are probably Lakota Indian words Oyate meaning “The People” and “Tyospaye” “Extended family or family circle” Note the Tyospaye is possibly a miss-spelling of Tiyospaye. (????)</p>
<p>Both Knives have some minor scratches unfortunately but are in pretty good condition considering their age.</p>
<p>Can anyone here flesh out the story of these knives for me? Has anyone come across the inscriptions before? Any suggestions/information would be appreciated. </p>
<p>I have more pictures which I will post soon - also once we are done with this I have another nice "Case Brothers" Stockman from 1996 to throw up for discussion</p> Did You Say Wharncliffe?tag:iknifecollector.com,2014-06-01:3181080:Topic:11444532014-06-01T22:10:15.618ZCraig Henryhttps://iknifecollector.com/profile/CraigHenry
<p>There's has been a fair amount of talk and interest on the Case Collectors Club for Case to do a Wharncliffe Peanut. There's a good chance that they will do one sometime. But, I decided to go ahead and modify one myself. This should give you a good idea of what one will look like.</p>

<p>It's been A LOT of years since I've done modifying or re-handling, but it felt good to get my hands back at it again. I don't have any of my power equipment anymore so I used a hand file to shape the…</p>

<p>It's been A LOT of years since I've done modifying or re-handling, but it felt good to get my hands back at it again. I don't have any of my power equipment anymore so I used a hand file to shape the blade (which I did sometimes even when I had power equipment) and my old standby Lansky to get the edge staright.</p>
