The Case Copperhead was originally introduced before the brand’s “Tested” era of the 1920s. The pattern’s serpentine shape, ample size and unique pocket end bolster have made it a favorite of Case knife enthusiasts for more than 100 years. Over the past several years, the Case Copperhead has been relegated to the Case XX Vault. But the Case Copperhead has returned to the Case product line for 2021. The Copperhead’s 3-7/8-inch closed length and 3.8 oz weight make it an optimal utility knife for general use around the home and outdoors. Its smooth, rounded and prominently raised pocket end bolster serves to block the edges of the knife’s main blade tang from snagging when retrieving the knife from your pocket. This special feature is captured in the catchphrase that accompanies our reintroduction: “The Case Copperhead gets sharp but won’t bite.” The revitalized Case Copperhead remains carefully crafted to the company’s own time-tested quality standards to ensure a proper build with dependable performance, and each Case product is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. Each Copperhead main blade is emblazoned with the official 2021 tang stamp, which is modeled after the “dot-dating” system that Case introduced in 1970.
