I was actually waiting for Case to compete with Spiderco and Benchmade, but I never thought they would follow the trend to using child labor in China!

?????? Not sure how I feel about this step.

I'll have to check one of these out in hand.

Due to the vastly different manufacturing process required for Tec X, this assortment will be sourced from China, from a Case approved factory where the same quality standards set for the core Case products will be applied, and the same warranties will be offered. This was a carefully considered decision by Case and was taken so as not to disrupt the traditional hand-crafted manufacturing plant in Bradford, Pennsylvania, which will continue to be fully operational.

Features found in the Tec X collection include one-handed opening and closing, pocket clips, anodized aluminum handles, AUS-8 blades, titanium coatings, and more. These attributes lend themselves to the modern day consumers.

“Tec X is an exciting new brand extension for Case,” said Tom Arrowsmith, president of W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Co. “We are looking to build on our history as the most renowned manufacturer of exquisite pocket knives, and bring to market a new collection of high-quality, modern knives. Designed for lifestyles of the everyday customer, the assortment will appeal to new and existing Case fans alike.”

Hey there fellow Case Fans! I'm still trying to get some info on which Case Knife was originally sold with the 6" leather, folding knife, belt sheath that came with  the portrait of Granddaddy Case embosed on it? I recently purchased one to accompany my recently acquired '77 Blue Scroll Case XX double blade Folding Hunter and it fits like a glove. Funny thing is that I doubt this knife was ever sold with a sheath at all, which seems strange as it is a rather cumbersome knife to carry in one's pocket?  The same with my '75 Case XX Folding Bull Dog Clasp knife with "Buffalo" embossed on the blade. That one came in a wood box. Again, no sheath.

On the other hand, sometime back I bought a 2001 SMK, Case XX Blue Stag Hammerhead Lockback which came with a plain 6" leather folding knife sheath. This knife practically rattles around in it's plain sheath (no portrait of "Granddaddy" & could fit in your pocket with reasonable comfort so, do any of you fellow Case affectionados have any idea which knives might have originally accompanied either of these similar light tan leather sheaths? 

If anyone knows any history on this, I'd sure love to know? Thanks!
