Here is a photo of the latest Case acquired. It is a single bladed CV Trapper with a liner lock and pocket clip. The handles are Chestnut Bone and the pattern is #54L and the item number is 30112. I have been carrying this knife with yellow handles for about six months and just find it to be my favorite EDC even over all of the tactical autos I own.

I will admit I have many mistresses and one is any folding pocket knife with a swing guard. Add a swing guard, liner lock (my favorite locking system) and pocket clip and I am in love again. Sadly this animal does not exist.

I have strongly suggested to Case, Tuna Valley, GEC and Moore Maker to make an XL swing guard with the liner lock and pocket clip. I am thinking the sized of the Case large single bladed hunter size with less expensive handles to keep the price down so as to be affordable by law enforcement, firemen, military and other underpaid public servants. Take this classic timeless design and jazz it up to a combat folding pocket knife. What do you think people? Would this design and size of knife sell? Would you want to have one? If you say no then you need to check your pulse. Please give some feed back.

That's a sweet-looking knife, Clint! I might look into getting one of those. I'm especially fond of the trapper design!

Paul if you purchase this knife you will not regret having done so. I was truly surprised how much I loved this knife.

I like the single blade "Trapper". The smooth Chestnut Bone looks great! Case does bone good!

I like this new Linda Karst scrimshaw!

It really does look great but  I'd like it better on a Case Whaler or marlin spike knife. (I'm turning into a curmudgeon)

You right Toby, they should do some on those! Maybe they will?

It would be nice but I sort of doubt it.  The Case Marlin Spike was outsourced to the old Camillus Factory.   The Case Whalers were made on the #99 frame and haven't been made since 1964!  Talk about being in the Vault!

You could always try pleading and crying like I do.

Craig, Apparently you haven't seen my posts on the Rough Rider, and SMKW facebook pages.  LOL

We need to start a "Make Our Knife Enforcement Group". I'll call Two Fingers Eddie in Chicago.

I didn't win the Shepherd Hills Cutlery blue Peanut.

I kinda like the shield on these......

Yes it is nice. I hope Case mixes up some of their shield designs.

I'd like to see some more old timey designs.

Ordered my first Case knives in 13 years!

Is it a peanut?

Could be......

Is it a canoe?

I don't know, but I finally bought the Sunset Winterbottom bone Moose on Friday. That's the first Case knife I have bought since being able to buy the two Cheetahs in the drawing last winter.I have had my eye on this for awhile. I also like the new sawcut bone that Case is doing.

Sawcut bone? Like this? I like it too.

That was an interesting video, Jan. I'm seriously thinking of making something similar out of old milk jugs, pvc pipe and duct tape!

Just like that, Craig

I also like their sawcut Amber Bone on their Rancher series, which is similar.

40% off, their discount price, a Case knife to be announced midnight (EST) Dec. 1 at Shepherd Hills Cutlery. - "Offer good while supplies last" - I bet they won't last long......whatever it is.

Craig if the original knife they offer sells out they will offer another pattern or a variations of that pattern.

Oh okay, thanks Gerald, I didn't know that. 

Got my new Case knives! Hopefully I can get some pictures and a review in the next few days.

My new Case knives are first class!!!

All of my Case knives are stainless steel.  I am wondering what  I will need to do if a purchase a case CV knife

Jack if it's going to be a user just a light coat of oil on the blades. If it's a collector Ren wax will help protect it.

Here's one I put a patina on using vinegar.

I just put Renaissance Wax on my carbon steel EDCs. I don't like oily knives in my pocket. Renaissance Wax has been working great for me since I went to carbon steel!

Here is my newest Case knife. It is a 4 1/8" Moose in Sunset Winterbottom Bone.

That's a pretty one Billy!

That's a really nice Moose. Billy.  Sunset winterbone is reallu nice, too.  Did you hear why its called "wnterbone" the other night?

Great looking Moose, Billy.  I really like the texture and color of the handles,  and I picked up a hawkbill in the Sunset winterbone.  Nice addition to your collection!

Toby, I didn't hear, I may not have been paying attention. Why did they call it that?  Craig, Bill, thanks. Bill, I figured you added one to your Hawkbill collection. I think this is one of the nicer colors and textures that Case has had out in a while. I really like the Case Stag knives, but don't like spending that much just to have them.

Apparently back in the day, there were numerous companies that provided knife scales to cutlery makers.  One of those companies was the Winterbottom Bone Company.  This was the style jigging the company used on their bone.  They also mentioned another bone jig pattern that was named after a company but I don't recall who it was.

Queen was well known for using a lot of Winterbottom back in the day. 

The other company was the "Rogers Manufacturing Company" 

Bernard Levine - "...the firm started in business in 1891, making manufactured bone products, and also bone fertilizer." 

Didn't Case recently make some in "Rogers Bone"? Or was it Queen?

One thing I like about Case......they have a good selection of smaller knives!

Some people, like me, like a smaller knife, and some people can only carry a smaller knife out of their house because of stupid knife laws.
