Some lovely Blades Roger & when bone gets that 'aged smoothness' about it, there is no other knife cover material that can hold a candle to it (IMHO)

That is very nice Sue. I am not overly familiar with Case knives (I have a few but not investigated them in any detail) 

Is the engraving on the bolsters factory - or after market?

Here's a few more that I like. All are H. Boker's.

I've never seen a knife like that MOP dog. Any idea how old it is?

Thanks Carl.

Doug: This knife is tang stamped H. Boker & Co's Cutlery Germany. The fact that it has Germany on its tang makes it post 1891 (steel tariff). My best guess is late 1800's - early 1900's. Here's some better pictures of it.

Roger,

Thanks for the details on the dog, it is not a knife that I have encountered before either!

Well I have to define that statement.  I have encountered it, in the 2009 Boker article from Knife World but the black and white pic did it no justice!
