No sure about the "XX "on the bolster version but this one of mine is a Case- #B'D254SS- Bois D' Arc (Osage Orange) trapper with 1991 year dated tang stamp-SFO for Crawford & Wilson Enterprises in Plano,Texas- 1 of 250
Very nice Trapper collection. Agreed, you don't have too many - you need more. The jigged bone on the bottom Butterbean is "Blue Lagoon". Happy New Year, Craig and all the Case Fans!
Because of comments here about the Mini Blackhorn, I picked one up a month or so ago at Lowes. It is my new letter opener. You have a nice collection, Charles. It is a shame that Case doesn't date these.
Craig, there are several Mini Blackhorns that I don't have yet. Over time I hope to pick more of them up. Right now I have four knives on order, a Case trapper and three Rough Riders.
i have a case saddlehorn i grabbed for a steal!.. i have another older vinatge PARKER saddlehore on its way now!..neat knives but what i would call pocket clunky!...LOL..nice belt sheath would go nice with them.IMO!
I'm in the middle of deep thought for what's next on the third Wed. Do you realize how hard deep thought is for me with only one firing brain cell left?

Thanks Howard - I have wanted that Buffalo Horn fixed and now this stacked leather fixed - I love them both.

There' goes Ken again making me want a new Case fixed blade! LOL!! I like it Ken! I do like the traditional leather handle.
I remember those Lee. They look super the second time around! I'm going to have to think seriously about getting the Trapper in it!

I THINK, the Trappers with Osage Orange handles and the "XX" on the bolster were made for Deadwood Knives. I think. And it hurts to think.
