SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case XX Baby Doc returns from the vault for 2025, offering collectors and traditionalists a rare chance to grab this classic before it’s gone again. Built on a legacy of American craftsmanship, the Baby Doc is a compact two-blade slip joint that honors the past while holding its own in any modern pocket. It features a 2.25" mirror polished Tru-Sharp surgical steel spear point blade paired with a traditional doctor’s spatula—each with nail nicks for easy access and backed by a no-nonsense slip joint mechanism. Whether you’re using it or admiring it, the quality is unmistakable.
This particular version captures the soul of Case’s heritage with Pocket Worn corn cob jigged old red bone handles—weathered by hand for the look and feel of a knife that’s been passed down for generations. The deep jigging adds a rugged texture, while the rich red hue brings out the warmth in the brass pins and liners. A nickel silver oval Case script shield completes the look with understated elegance. It’s 2.87" closed and weighs just 1.2 ounces, making it an easy fit in your pocket or display case. Proudly made in the USA and only available for a limited time, the 2025 Baby Doc won’t stay above ground for long.
