Howard, you are right.  I just looked at my Case Collector which came today.  It would appear they probably don't even make them until all orders are in so they know how many to make.  I didn't notice any of that when I ordered on line.  So instead of waiting days or even weeks, I am going to have to wait months!  Next year I will wait til near the deadline to order so my money isn't tied up and I don't have to wait so long.

I feel your pain, Charles.  It's a tough wait for the club knives, but worse is the quarterly raffle when you don't get chosen for the opportunity to buy a matched set of something you really want.

When I order new Case CCC blue bone peanut knife. Just a week later, It arrive my package that i get it. It have no problem

Charles they usually make a number of the Regular member and Junior Knives early for the people that just order those knives, the Lifer sets knives usually take a little longer because they are put in line to have the Lifer number engraved on the set.They have a fairly good idea of how many they can make and not have extras.

Those new member Peanuts have been made for a couple of years so they were on hand. Check the tang stamp and see if it's not and earlier year.

I just checked the tang stamp on my New Members peanut.  It has three dots missing so it is a 2013.

Charles... same mine too

Wow Lee, that pearl looks great!

Woo Hoo, Woo Hoo, they are coming!  I just talked to Case.  The Junior Member Annual Knife for my grandson was shipped today.  My Regular Member knife will ship tomorrow.  Also while on the phone I asked if it might be possible to get a 2012 Junior Member knife.  There were a few left so one will ship tomorrow with my Regular Member knife.  I consider the 2012 knife my grandson's first birthday present.  This year's and each succeeding year's knife will be my birthday present to him.  So for his 16th birthday I hope to present him with 16 Junior Member knives.

The 2012 Junior Member knife is a crimson bone copperhead.

When the knives come I will definitely post pics.

Good job Charles and a good plan.

Good feeling having knives coming your way.......in a box......with the blades closed.

Yes, much better than them flying at you opened!!

You have a point there Charles!  LOL

Cass bought me a new knife as a surprise!

Third Wednesday is coming.....like molasses going downhill in winter.

Mine doesn't come until the fourth Wednesday, so my molasses are twice as thick!

Today for me.

I got my first case tested xx in the mail today.and it sure is Purdy.

Does anyone know what they call this pattern?

Lee,

I am not an expert on this type of knife, but it looks to be a Gentleman's Pen, especially in MOP, but three blades might make it a "Senator".

I thought it was a senator but was not sure. Thanks

Just call it SWEET.

Thanks paul

Beautiful pearl Case knife! The pearl looks in great shape!

The Humpback in a business suit.....beautiful Ebony.

Nice looking knife Craig.

Oooooo, I'd like to hold that one, Craig!

Hey, that looks just like mine!

Gotta love that ebony.

Yeah Max, your beautiful knife got me thinking about Ebony again. 

Very classy and VERY traditional.

Case will be doing a line of jigged Buffalo horn handles! I know at least one I will get. 

The new Case Select will be in Brick Red Winterbottom. It is BEAUTIFUL!

Here's the XX Select 'Brick Red' Peanut that I received it last week...

Now that is one sweet peanut Derek!

Very nice, Derek.

Derek, Man that is Red, super nice color! Very Nice!

Jigged Buffalo, Craig?

Wow I'd have to see it. I'd seen some someplace but cant remember where and wasn't thrilled, I like smooth for the horn but I'd have to see it!

Have you seen pics of it?

Thanks. That 'Brick Red' and this Sawcut 'Olive Green' Father's Day 2013 Exclusive were two that my daughter gave me as early Father's Day gifts. Her birthday is also this Sunday but unfortunately she's almost 2,200-miles away at grad school so.......... BUT she'll be home for a 3-week visit next month so there's something to look forward to!

....that and those Buffalo Horn handled folders from Case!! I'm hoping that they look as good as they sound... maybe a Sowbelly for me?

Those are some nice Peanuts.

I'll likely pass on the buff horn.  I'm a bonehead at heart.

Nice Father's Day presents Derek!!

I love that Brick Red! I think I'm  going to get the Stockman in it.

I've always wanted some Buffalo horn knives. I hope they come out good.......and I hope the Mediun Stockman is going to be the 032.

I really like that Sawcut Olive Green! I wish they'd do some others in it.....like my beloved 33 Stockman.

♫ I hear the train a comin', it's rollin' 'round the bend, and I ain't seen the third Wednesday since I don't know when.....♫

Cut it out Craig...LOL

Picked up a couple mini Blackhorns at Lowes today.

Lowes? I don't think our Lowes has any Case knives. What section do they keep them in?

Saw a picture of the jigged Buffalo horn. I like it. At least in that picture. I'll have to get the Stockman at least. I still need to get a fixed blade in the Buffalo horn too. So many knives....

I EDC a Mini Blackhorn.  I got it at Lowes also.  They had them on a small hanging display at the front of the store.  They didn't really have a separate knife section.
