The new Case Smooth Black Curly Maple pocketknives are available in six different patterns, and they are gorgeous. The BackPocket pattern is our favorite. At 4.625″, it’s the largest knife with the thinnest profile in this series. As such, we think it best displays the beautiful grain in the handles.

The Case Smooth Black Curly Maple series handles have a beautiful coloration with both dark and light wood grain that range from black to a light dove grey. The nickel silver bolsters highlight the beauty of the beautiful wood grain. Additionally, the handle has the Case XX USA pewter shield.

These knives feature mirror polished Case Tru-Sharp surgical steel blades with half stops. And, as is generally true with most Case pocketknives, they feature brass pins and liners.

The Case Smooth Black Curly Maple series comes in the following patterns:  the BackPocket, Trapper, the 2018 exclusive Doctor’s Knife, Small Stockman, Small Texas Tooth Pick, Mini Trapper, Sowbelly, and the Lockback pattern.
