In 1989, Blue Grass Cutlery was given permission by W.R. Case & Sons to produce several thousand knives called “Case Classics.” About 1992, W.R. Case & Sons changed ownership, and a four year license was granted to Blue Grass Cutlery to continue making Case Classic knives. The majority of the classic knives were sold to Parker’s Knife Collector Service of Chattanooga, Tennesee. The markings used on these knives include “Case Bros.”, “W.R. Case & Sons”, “Case Tested XX”, and other old Case family related markings. The knives are dated within the marking.
