The next step
Case Knives have done it: the award for the "American Made Knife of the year" went to the Case Knives Marilla in 2021. This knife didn't just win a prize, however, but represents a completely new branch that the traditional manufacturer is tapping into here. The Marilla is one of the few truly modern pocket knives you'll find in the Case Knives portfolio. Just like the traditional folders, this knife is made entirely in the USA with a lot of handwork and attention to detail. The colored anodized aluminum handle scales are not only good in the hand, but also ensure that the weight is absolutely within limits - after all, this is a large working folder. The G10 inlays once again ensure that the Marilla rests securely in your hand when you flip the blade out of the hilt via the flipper tab.
The Framelock - of course with a steel inlay for maximum wear resistance - locks the ball-bearing blade in the open state bombproof. For the steel, Case Knives chose powder metallurgy S35VN, which you may already know from the Chris Reeve folders. This is a rust-resistant and very edge-holding alloy that retains its sharpness for a long time. Together with the convertible deep-carry clip, you get a total package that has it all. The Marilla is a modern working knife produced by one of the most historic manufacturers in the USA at an absolutely attractive price. You can win an award with this knife.

- Keep your hands sharp -
Case Knives, based in Bradford, Pennsylvania, has a mission: to keep hands-on work alive. In the last 20 years, our hands have increasingly moved to swiping, likening, pressing and typing. Case Knives have a different idea of work - here we draw from the full, grab, lift, work and cut.
Whether you're a craftsman, a president or even an astronaut, Case Knives has been building knives for everyone and anyone since 1889. Even US President Eisenhower used to keep a handful of Pen Knives with his signature on the blade in his desk drawer to present as gifts to guests in the White House. And on NASA's 13 Apollo missions, Case Knives were also on board in the form of a massive machete - you never know what to expect in space. But Case pocket knives are not only for such big tasks: especially models like the legendary Trapper with its two blades, are a real workhorse for everyday life - whether on the farm, a construction site, in the craft or in the office.
For over 150 years, the traditional manufacturer has been building a wide range of pocket knives, in the production of which, in addition to a number of modern, machine processes, there is still an incredible amount of manual work to be seen, especially in the assembly. Here, more than 160 work steps are necessary until a Case knife is finished and "ready for shipping". Incidentally, the employees in assembly undergo a year and a half of training before they are allowed to assemble the pocket knives themselves. In general, there is a great passion at the company and quite a few of the employees have been working in the company for over 40 years, some even longer. Through the assembly and making out by hand, each Case pocket knife has a very light, individual look, which you can see the loving handwork. By the way, the XX stamping on the Ricasso means that the blades are tempered and tested twice.
Case Knives are especially famous for their wide selection of different handle materials. Whether premium Stagg, bone, Micarta, G10, wood or Delrin: there is really something for everyone. The special thing is that none of the knives looks boring or even old-fashioned - quite the opposite. A Case knife radiates a consistency that impressed us from the start.
