CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case "Snakeskin" Baby Doc in Red Smooth Bone with Diamond Shield is a compact, two-blade traditional that brings together classic Case craftsmanship with everyday utility in a pocket-friendly package. Built with the collector in mind but ready for real-world use, this little workhorse delivers timeless appeal, durable materials, and a distinctive look that stands out in any rotation.
This slipjoint knife features two 2" blades: a spear point and a spatula, both made from Case's proprietary Tru-Sharp Surgical Steel. Known for its excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance, Tru-Sharp is a stainless steel that holds up in daily use while being easy to maintain. Both blades open with a traditional nail nick, reinforcing the old-school character and simplicity that Case knives are known for.
The handle is made from richly colored red smooth bone, polished to a soft sheen and finished with Case’s iconic Diamond Shield inlay. This bone material not only looks stunning with its deep, warm hue but also provides a smooth yet solid grip that feels natural in the hand. The subtle “Snakeskin” patterning along the spine adds just the right amount of character and texture without being overstated. At just 2.78" closed, the Baby Doc slides easily into your coin pocket or EDC pouch and disappears until it's needed.
True to its doctor’s knife heritage, the Baby Doc is compact, clean-lined, and balanced in the hand. It’s a solid choice for light-duty cutting, scraping, or even prying when the spatula blade is put to work. From opening letters to quick clean-up jobs in the shop, this knife offers practical versatility with a dose of traditional charm.
Whether you're a long-time Case collector, a traditional knife enthusiast, or someone looking for a unique, compact tool with real style, the Case "Snakeskin" Baby Doc is a worthy addition to your kit. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects the craftsmanship, history, and utility that has defined Case knives for over a century. Order it today from SMKW!
