Hello Autoknife,
Those are beautiful. My favorite is all of them. You have an awesome collection of vintage swingers.
Eddy thanks for asking and Autoknife thanks for sharing.

Hi

I have an original Case 6111 swing-guard that I use as an EDC, I bought it quite a few years ago, and I believe mine was made in the 1970's.
Also, I have a celluloid handle Case bowtie that I alternate occasionally, I wish that one had a lockback though.

Thanks,
Marcus

Here's a nine inch 60's swinger I got a while back. These pics were taken by the previous owner, not me. I'll bet a few of you can tell who it was just by looking at the background :P ...
