That's my New Year's resolution Peter; try to buy more Case knives than I did last year! LOL!!
I think the "upgrade" is only nickel silver liners and pins; maybe better matched scale color. Same blade steel as regular Case knives.
Wikipedia:
Nickel silver, German silver,[1] Argentan,[1] new silver,[1] nickel brass,[2] albata,[3] alpacca,[4] or electrum[5] is a copper alloy with nickel and often zinc. The usual formulation is 60% copper, 20% nickel and 20% zinc.[6] Nickel silver is named for its silvery appearance, but it contains no elemental silver unless plated. The name "German silver" refers to its development by 19th-century German metalworkers in imitation of the Chinese alloy known as paktong (cupronickel)[7][8] All modern, commercially important nickel silvers (such as those standardized under ASTM B122) contain significant amounts of zinc, and are sometimes considered a subset of brass.[9]
Anybody know what blade steel Case uses on their "Case Select" series? Is it the same "Tru-Sharp" stainless they use on their standard knives, or something a bit more exotic? Thanks - Jon Salmon
