In the two photos just above are Case Classics and were actually made by Queen. Case no longer had the tooling for the old knife patterns so they subcontracted it out.

Here's a picture of the best Case knife that I've had the pleasure to own. It's a 6394 1/2 pattern and is called a "Cigar". Made in the 1920's and is in mint condition. I have many more if y'all would like to see them.

Here's a newer one, made in 1970. Knife is a 6488 "Big Congress" This knife is called a transition because it has one blade stamped ten dot (1970) the the other blade is stamped CASE XX USA which is a stamp used from 1965 through 1969. They a considered rare and command a higher price. The '88 pattern is the most sought after Case knife by collectors. It also has the current record for highest price ever brought for a Case knife. One was sold at an auction for $14,300.00.

Here's a picture of the transition knife that I used to own.
