You would think so.

I have found lots of mako's,hammerheads and sharks tooth's but no greatwhite's. Steve the forum you have found is the same knife that I have. Larry didn't have any luck finding anything about it back in 2011. He was the one who posted it. Here is what I know so far. It didn't come from SMKW. It's not a case classic. SHC didn't start keeping records until 1995. I'm lost. lol but i'm not giving up quite yet.

That would put it about the time J Parker owned Case I believe. And the manufacturer would have been Blue Grass Cutlery to market I think.

I recall an old episode of Knives Live that featured all sorts of sharks knives made on the Mako frame.   Maybe Steve Koontz could help?  If it were an SMKW SFO then Steve probably had it produced.

Congrats Lee, It is a conversation piece anyway and a cool knife

SHC only started keeping records in 1995 and suggested that I contact the case historian. I just sent them an e-mail, I called the owner of the knife to let them know what I have found out so and offered to bring it back to them since I have all the info I need to find out what it is. They gave me the knife. I now have something to remember Larry Luster by. I think he would get a kick out of knowing that I have it.

OK, it was not SMKW, nor was it Parker.  Here is Jay Parker's reply

Hey Jan, It wasn't ours, I can't say that I have ever seen this one to be honest....Unique knife....Check with Shepherd Hills, it may have been something they did but I honestly don't remember it from their line either

Lee, Jan and Hog have sent out requests -- They took my subtle hints -LOL

Hopefully, we will hear something back, soon-

Lee, I have poured through all my knife books (and I have several) and can't find a mention of your Great White--- IMHO, it was a SFO for either SMKW or Shepherd Hills--In 1990 only about 4 companies were doing SFO's with Case. The 2 above mentioned, Lowes (an exclusive blue bone series of which I happen to own one of their blue bone trappers) and Ace Hardware (doubtful)-- So it is likely either SMKW or Shepherd Hills---NOW, if only we knew some folks that had inside connections with those 2!!  HINT, HINT--Jan and/ or Hog --ROFL
