SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case Crossroads Series stands at the intersection of heritage and innovation, blending timeless Case patterns with modern precision. The XR Barlow pays tribute to the iconic frame collectors have long admired while reimagining it with advanced materials and forward-thinking construction. It’s a seamless fusion of tradition and progress—where classic craftsmanship meets contemporary design.
This version features smooth tan Richlite handles that bring a refined, natural aesthetic with the durability and stability of an engineered material. The warm tone of the handles pairs perfectly with black G-10 bolsters engraved with Case’s classic XX mark, creating a bold contrast that’s both striking and strong. Every line and curve is shaped with care, delivering a knife that feels as dependable as it looks sophisticated.
At its heart lies a 2.45" clip point blade made from premium CPM S35VN stainless steel—renowned for its outstanding toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The blade’s clean profile and fluid action make it ideal for daily use or as a standout addition to any collection. Measuring 3.38" closed and weighing just 3.2 ounces, the XR Barlow offers a balanced feel and effortless carry.
