If it were an older pattern it could have started out with a “1”, but for the most part they are a “0” or a “Prototype” when they are first made.

Is 1992 considered an older patern?

I would say it's semi-early and a 1 could very easily be a first one

In answer to your question, if the knife was today more than likely it would be marked PROTOTYPE. The first knife pattern is now marked with prototype and the numbering starts at #0 and stops at #9.

Here is the one I was talking about. It was made in 1992. It is very gorgeous.

I agree, very sweet. It's almost like a Case 83 whittler. So what is the number on it?

I like the little wharnie blade instead of a coping blade.

Tony, it is the one you made for Buck Woodard. It is around 4.3 inches closed.

I got a bunch of photocopies of a similar case whittler with it. I am not sure if Mr. Woodard requested a similar knife, or what. It is numbered 1.

Here are some of the papers that I got with it. There are way too many papers to show.
