Hello To Every Case Lover!

I am from Tennessee and love collecting Texas Toothpick along with other patterns. I have been collecting only since March and have about 40 Case knives. Gave my Dad in April the WWII troop pattern when we when to Washington DC to the WWII Memoral, he is 86.5 and relived all the battles those 4 days. It was 7 of us within the family that attended. I bought two Trapper Blue Appolosa's. one for Dad and one for me, tears came into his eyes that morning. He was Proud To Service for HIs Country. Thank Every Vet you know especially the few WWII Vets that are still with us. We own those young 17-20 years old so much. Glad to me a part of IKC, sorry for my soapbox speech. Hello to All.

Welcome Cliff. Thank your dad for me also. I started collecting the toothpicks but I was soon over come by the number of different ones made and settled on collecting Barlows and Slimlocks.

Cliff,
Please thank your Dad for me. He risked his life so we could grow up to be free. I'm sure that he has many fond memories; also many sad ones. He's a real hero in my book. May God continue to bless him.
Regards,
Frank Plant

Cliff,

What a wonderful testimony! Your dad is an American hero, just like every other proud veteran. Thank him for us, please. If you have a picture of your dad with you (and a picture of one of the knives you bought for him) we'd love to put this story up on our website's My Favorite Case showcase...send to casestories@wrcase.com. Thanks again...from everyone at W.R. Case & Sons!

Thanks Fred, On October 20th my Dad will turn 87. I will be glad to take a picture of him with the knife I gave him on our family Washington DC Trip this past April 2010. I wish more of America would remember the great gift all our armied forces gives every day, including those few WWII Vets that are still alive and with us today.
