Camco jack, rescaled

It obviously doubled as a pry bar at some point with one blade completely broke and the tip on the other snapped. From what I can gather it's from 1920-1940. Is it worth fixing older knives or just let it be?

Exactly as the title says, it’s a Case 1940-64 stag trapper but has the tested 1920-40 frame,shield and blades. Very rare and sought after knife and I’m proud to have it in my collection.

This is a mini copperlock stainless in amber bone. Per the date charts, I think the closest stamp is the “1997-1999”; (“USA” doesn’t have the lightning “s” though). But the chart shows dots on the left and right of USA not top and bottom.

This has 10 dots, so would this be 1997?

Thanks in advance! 😅

Case date code? This one confuses me.

Over the past year or so I’ve gotten a little bored with modern lock and clip folding knives. A few months ago I started decided to dabble in modern slip joint knives and began carrying a benchmade proper. Today I received this beauty in the mail and it’ll start being my main squeeze.

Birthday office carry

It's mine, at last! GEC number (lucky) seven. I think this is the start of a long relationship.

Finally got a hold of one!

My grandfather carried a knife in his pocket every day of his life.   He was a coal miner from Kentucky and probably the most awesome guy I ever met.   He died in 2011 and I got his knives as an inheritance.  As a little kid, I would go to the local flea market and buy him knives as birthday gifts and for Christmas.  I VIVIDLY remember him pealing apples on the porch for me and teaching me life lessons.   

Although this wasn't his EDC, it's one of my favorites.  He used to use it to process hogs.  From what my uncle (his son)  told me, he got it from my great uncle ( My granny's brother, his brother in law, ) as a spoil of war from WWII. It wouldn't shock me if it came off a dead soldier before it got to my papaw. 

I've always wanted to carry it deer hunting but can't bring myself to because it was his and I wouldn't want to lose it.  How do you guys balance carrying heirlooms, or knives that belong to  your grandfather's or father's?

I got this 1920-40 case knife online. Got it for a good deal, but would like to know if it’s real, I couldn’t find a pattern number. Much help is appreciated, thanks!
