| Notes:
This is a new project for Gene. This is a W. R. Case pattern out of my Dad's
Case tested collection. It is cut down about a third of the size. In all my
research I could not find the pattern number and a couple of experts told me
what it was but it did not match up in any of the books. Dad did take it
back to Case and a couple workers in the 60's remembered making it, but not
many were made. So it is a unusual pattern.
Gene and I also decided to use this
pattern to launch a new project which for now is a Plaza Cutlery exclusive.
For the first time Gene has used an out side service for help with a few
parts. I may have to correct some of this as I do not have it all straight.
Bolsters and liners are all one piece and cut by Ken Onion and Jeff Park in
Kens shop in Hawaii. Also the blades were profiled but not ground. This
saved a lot of work and while many other makers do this on all their knives
Gene has always done everything himself and does not plan to change from
that. These knives are not sterilized so they are easy to identify and he
just putting the year on the back side and his name is in "Arial" printing
instead of script. These two have beautiful bone
handles and have an optional stainless steel shield. Blades are perfect like
all of Genes knives with a perfect finish. Fit and finish is flawless and
they also have half stops which Gene rarely does but I requested! Blades are
perfectly centered and open easy with nice crisp snaps and will not break
your nail while opening. I could not have asked for more. We will be doing
different versions of this knife as we work it out and when the economy
picks up. So a Shadley knife at this price is rare and it is one of the best
values out there! There were a lot people interested at the show here in
Costa Mesa as Gene had them out on his table so we are both looking forward
to this project as it grows! |
