    Description

    Hi, I am Steve Pfeiffer, author of the book
    Collecting Case knives - Identification and Price Guide
    . I have been collecting, buying, and selling CASE and other brands of vintage and modern pocket knives since 1973.
    I am offering some fine collectible pocket knives for sale. See my other auction listings for more collectible knives.
    This is a vintage Case 64052 “Medium Congress” pattern pocket knife.
    This knife is a rare “transition” knife, made in 1978 with one leftover 1974 blade.
    It has the CASE XX USA 2 dot (1978) tang stamp on the large spear blade and the 6 dot (1974) tang stamp on the large sheepfoot blade.
    The knife is 3-1/2” closed with nickel silver liners and pins.
    The blade steel is CV (carbon) steel.
    All blades have strong snap with half stops.
    All blades are tight with no side-to-side wobble.
    The “Appaloosa” handles have no cracks or damage.
    A mint knife - never used, carried, or sharpened, original factory blade finish and edges.
    Included is the vintage Case “pumpkin” box shown in the photos. Case used this style of box from the 1950’s through the mid-1980’s.
    Also includes the vintage Case “Use and Care” wrapper as shown in the photos.
    Note - It is indeed unusual to see a “transition” knife like this with such a long time gap between the years that the blades were made.
    However, I have seen several like this in the 64052 pattern, made with one 1978 blade and the other large blade from 1974 or 1975.

    Sales to USA Locations Only - Buyer must be at least 18 years of age.
    Some states have started requiring eBay to collect sales tax on items going to these states. eBay has a list of those states that have started collecting sales tax in 2019 on online purchases. This is nothing I have control over and the sales tax is automatically added to your total by eBay if you reside in one of these states.
