Case Axe Handle Persimmon Orange Bone Gator Jig Carbon Steel Pocket Knife (3.95" Closed) 38076

The Case Axe Handle in Persimmon Orange Bone Gator Jig swaps quiet traditional tones for hunting-vest blaze. Under that orange bone sits a mirror-polished 1095 carbon clip blade that takes an edge fast.

• Persimmon Orange Bone Gator Jig - Genuine bone scales are dyed bright orange and cut with the Gator jig, a pebbled pattern that recalls alligator hide. Polished bolsters and the Case Block Bowtie shield frame the color.
• 1095 Carbon Steel Clip Blade - A mirror-polished clip point in 1095, a classic high-carbon steel that sharpens quickly on a simple stone and shrugs off hard use. It gives up some edge life to premium steels. Wipe it dry and add a light coat of oil to keep rust away.
• Single-Blade Slip Joint - One clip blade opens from a nail nick. A backspring holds it open in place of a lock. Close it with your fingers clear of the edge.
• Made in the USA - Built at the Case factory in Bradford, Pennsylvania, where the company has made knives since 1905. The tang is stamped with the BR61135 CS pattern number. It carries the Case limited lifetime warranty.

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.
