January 2001, Bradford, Pa. — W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company, the most recognized knife brand in America, is returning the Doctor’s Knife to the market this year.
Physicians have demanded durability and quality in a knife since the days when they made house calls in a horse-drawn buggy. Back then, its razor-sharp blade had to cut pills in half or even serve as a backup scalpel. The flat end was used to grind medicine into powder.
House calls and the black bag have gone the way of the buggy but this classic knife is still an ideal companion.
“The Doctor’s Knife is a romantic pocket knife pattern that Case enthusiasts have requested for a long time,” explained John Sullivan, Marketing Director for W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company. “In continuing to respond to our customers, we decided to bring back this popular traditional style.”
The new Case Doctor’s Knife has a traditional Tru-Sharp® surgical steel three inch spear blade that closes into a Genuine Vintage Bone handle.  Or you can get the durable synthetic Yellow Handle with chrome vanadium steel blades.
W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Co. has been making high quality knives since 1889. The most popular collectable brand of knife in America, Case continues to make its knives the old-fashioned way — by hand. For more information, call 800-523-6350 or visit their web site at www.wrcase.com.
