CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case XX Dark Red Bone Cheetah Cub Lockback Folding Knife carries the kind of heritage and restraint that’s defined Case craftsmanship for generations. Compact, dependable, and proudly American-made, this knife blends traditional styling with practical features suited for everyday use and collection alike. At 3.5 inches closed and weighing just 1.9 ounces, it disappears in the pocket while still offering the solid feel collectors and users expect from Case.
The mirror polished Tru-Sharp stainless steel clip blade delivers excellent corrosion resistance and edge retention, making it a reliable choice for light utility tasks, detailed cutting, and everyday carry duties. Tru-Sharp steel sharpens easily and holds an edge well, striking a balance that’s proven itself over decades of real-world use. The clip point profile offers a fine tip for precision work while maintaining enough belly for clean slicing. A secure lockback mechanism keeps the blade firmly in place during use, adding confidence without complicating operation.
The handle is where this Cheetah Cub truly stands out. Rich dark red bone scales give the knife a warm, traditional look that only improves with age and carry. Brass liners provide internal strength, while nickel silver bolsters add durability and classic contrast. The swing guard adds a subtle touch of old-school flair while enhancing hand protection. Set into the handle is an inlaid nickel silver Case Stars & Stripes shield in red, white, and blue, giving this knife a distinctly patriotic character that honors American craftsmanship and pride.
Every detail reflects Case’s long-standing commitment to quality, from the fit and finish to the balanced feel in hand. This is a knife built for those who appreciate tradition, reliability, and timeless design in a compact package that’s easy to carry every day.
