The Case XX Axe Handle Folding Knife 30th Anniversary Pocket Worn Jigged Bone is a standout piece built for collectors who appreciate tradition with real grit. Created in collaboration with master knifemaker Bill Ruple, this knife showcases a rare one-piece integral backspring that delivers rock-solid strength and smooth, confident action. Closed, it measures about 4.4 inches and carries comfortably in the pocket, while its 4.2-ounce weight gives it a substantial, reassuring feel without being cumbersome. The 3.46-inch clip point blade offers classic lines and everyday versatility, ready for work or display.
Brass pins and liners anchor the construction, paired with nickel silver bolsters that add a timeless touch of contrast. An inlaid Case shield completes the look with understated pride. The Pocket Worn jigged bone handles are where this knife truly tells its story. Designed to look naturally aged and broken-in, they reflect decades of honest use while delivering modern reliability. This year marks the 30th anniversary of Case XX’s Pocket Worn process, and this knife celebrates that milestone with character you can see and feel the moment it’s in hand.
