Anybody carry these regularly? Is he quality still good? I'm sure they're not like they used to be, but I'm wondering if they're still good.

Actually just looked on the blade, looks like mine was made in 91.

I prefer the Chrome vanadium blades. The blade will me marked CV. I have one with me as long as I have my pants on.

Carry a Peanut every day- still made in the US, good little knife.
I have the CV blades, get stainless- the CV blades will get a little rusty if you use them in the saltwater, but a brillo pad takes care of it.

love case knives...have some old ones and new ones. I really like my yellow trapper...

Same here, I carry my sodbuster daily and keep a trapper in my console. The CV blades are very easy to sharpen.

I'm lookin at the the trapper myself,.

Stopped carrying a case a few years ago. Its a solid knife but I picked up a spyderco endura. It quickly became my go to. Recently I picked up a spyderco mannix 2 xl and it is superb. Tough as nails, big as shite, stays SHARP.

They are definitely still a great knife. Like mentioned the cv will wear off and start rusting the blade. If you use a pocket knife a much as I do it's nice to have something that a couple swipes on a wet rock and you are back in business. I have never had a SS knife I could say that about. I have the yellow handle trapper but bought my son a mini trapper and thinking about picking another mini up for myself.

They're great for the price.

My grandfather collected knives, and I have two Case knives that are at least 50 years old (one was a knife you sent off for in an old magazine.) They are both of comparable quality to the newer one I got when I was in high school 12 years ago. I don't carry it anymore, but still a good knife.

Buy the CV blade and stick it in an Irish potatoe for about 2 weeks. Pull blade out of tater and it will be tarnished with a dull blackness on the blade. Resharpen and never worry about rust again.
I do not frequent saltwater though
