I've got a transition as well I think. Wish I could send you a picture to answer my question. You're obviously very knowledgeable

[@TimothyCibula-vh5ip]

Welcome. I did!!

[@oldpocketknives168]

Found one?

[@jameskerlin6081]

Thank you for that information. I had heard the term but never a clear explanation. On a different subject, you used to list "other Connecticut knives" in your Holley section. Any chance of that coming back?

[@oldpocketknives168]

Thanks for the feedback...glad you liked the video. I ran into an issue with the "other Conn knives" feed but I hope to have that back up in the future.

So it reallis pot luck when you are looking for a "good" Case knife. I can't help noticing the blade rub marks on the smaller knife.
