Case Axe Handle Gator Jig Old Red Bone Pocket Knife (3.95" Closed) 51546

The Case Axe Handle in Gator Jig Old Red Bone brings the brand's first new pattern in years to a handle built for grip, color that only deepens with carry, and a Tru-Sharp stainless clip blade ready for daily work.

• Tru-Sharp Clip Blade - A mirror-polished clip point in surgical stainless steel sharpens up fast and shrugs off rust, built for everyday cutting tasks without the upkeep of a carbon blade.
• Gator Jig Old Red Bone Handle - The deep red bone scales carry the Gator Jig cut, a moderate texture that fills the hand without fighting the pocket on the draw.
• Smooth Slip Joint Action - A nail nick pulls the clip blade open with a smooth, traditional give, and the backspring holds it firm at full extension with no lock and no blade play.
• American-Made Craftsmanship - Built at the Case factory in Bradford, Pennsylvania, this Axe Handle pairs nickel silver bolsters and brass liners with an oval shield in raised letters, American made from blade to bolster.

The Case Axe Handle

The Axe Handle is a rare thing in the Case catalog: a completely new pattern. Co-designed with award-winning custom maker Bill Ruple, this slip joint earns its name from the distinctive upswept curve at the butt of the handle. That profile is more than a style choice. It fills your hand in a way that flat-ended traditionals simply don't. The pattern stamp marks the first inline collaboration between Case and Ruple, with the numbers honoring both his 35 years of custom knifemaking and the 135 years Case had been in business when the project started.
