Beautiful American made knife at the rite price

This knife was purchased as a gift for my father-in-law after our family stayed with him in Maine this summer. I own one of these knives and therefore I was familiar with the quality and wanted to get him something nice. Case are beautiful knives and it is even better that they are American made. Based on what I saw him using his old pocket knife for I suspect he will so the same with this i.e., working in the garden and as a general purpose tool. The detail on the knife is first rate and the blades are easy to sharpen and hold their edge well. This knife is also the perfect size for keeping in your pocket and goes un-noticed in your pockets as well.

The Peanut Has Become One Of My Favorites

I bought mine back in January 2008. And since then 90% of the time, I grab this to put in my pocket. I have about 40 Case knives and many other brands as well. I use to rotate my carry knife. I still do somewhat. But the Peanut is normally one of them. If I only carry one, it is a Sod Buster Jr. But most of the time I carry a Peanut and a Sod Buster Jr. I went away for a week and I purposely didn't take either with me. I took 4 different Case knives to chose from each day. All week I wish I had the Jr and my Peanut. There's nothing wrong with the ones I took. I have just grown to love these knives. These are all the knives I need. I buy others and will continue to. But it will take a special knife to replace my Peanuts and Jr's. as my main EDC's. Fit and finish is perfect. It was not very sharp. But that doesn't bother me as I always put my own edge on any knife I plan on carrying. The blade steel is better than people think. They go by the type of steel and don't even try them. But the most important thing for blade sharpness and retention is the heat treat. You can have a middle of the road steel, but give it the best heat treatment that steel can get and it will outperform a better steel with a not so good heat treatment. And Case has nailed the heat treatment of their knife steels.

Very pretty, unobtrusive pocket-sized cutting tool

It is a beautiful, very well made knife: the scales are an exact fit, the nickel bolsters are, too. There is no play at all in the blades and the half-way notch is solid. The two stainless steel blades are usably sharp, but I don't know how well they hold their edge, nor how difficult it is to re-sharpen them. I have other Case XX pocket knives with chrome vanadium blades, which will take a very sharp edge, hold it for a long time and re-sharpen quite readily. The drawback with these is that you have to keep the blades cleaned and moisture free (a wipe with a silicone permeated cloth every couple of days, or after each use), to prevent rust. I'm sort of building a collection of the amber bone knives, and the Peanut was only available with SS blades. Still, as a gentleman's knife; used for opening letters or potato chip bags, or for cutting package strings and cutting threads, it's just fine. Plus, it's so pretty that when you use it, people look at it appreciatively, and it's small enough that most people don't have any trepidation about 'the guy with the knife" at the office. I give it 5 stars because the blade material, is a matter of personal preference, not a reflection on this excellent product.

Thanks for the fast delivery

I ordered this for my son-in-law for Christmas and was afraid it wasn't going to make it but to my surprise it did and he was delighted. The airport security had taken one identical to it from him recently. Very pleased!
