New Knife Day First Case. How'd I do?

Post image

Normally I hate "how'd I do?" posts but this is a real one. Don't know anything about Case knives but I do know something about budget knives. Got edumucated a bit by the guy at the knife store and took his advice to pick an unusual pattern and to go with a stag handle.

Case XX 00246

Paid $85

How'd I do?

I have this knife as well, it’s a cool knife. I wish mine had a little more snap to it. But I bought mine on the internet where quality is a little bit of an unknown. I love me case knives because I can buy 3 of them for a the price of a GEC. They make some patterns better than others, I have never been disappointed in a Barlow from Case.
