Case Classic 3091 White Stag Whittler. FACTORY SAMPLE. 1 of 5.

This is one of approximately 50 +- "Factory Sample Knives" I will be listing over the next few weeks. The White Stag on this Whittler is outstanding. 

The real story of the fascinating history of the Case Classic program starts with the Letter of Authenticity---see the photo. The letter outlines how five men selected the exact knives to be included in the Classic program. These five men received knives titled FACTORY SAMPLE knives. The interesting fact is CASE KNIVES made only 3 of the 36 patterns in the CASE CLASSIC program. The balance of 33 knives were made at QUEEN CUTLERY. You GREAT EASTERN CUTLERY fans will love this, Bill Howard, owner of GREAT EASTERN CUTLERY was responsible for making those knives. Thus the high quality of CASE CLASSIC Knives. I love knife history.
