Case Classic knives have held a recent interest for me. Part of this, frankly, is that they typically aren't made by case. The knife shown in this photo is a good example. While it has "Case" all over it, it's actually produced by Queen Cutlery (1990...which, I think, is during Bill Howard's tenure). The quality of this knife is quite a bit higher than most "typical" Case knives (particularly those form the 90s).
