This is a CASE XX USA Sidewinder lock blade with stainless steel blades. Main blade front tang stamp is blank which I think is rare. Nice blade etch of a Sidewinder rattle snake. Back tang stamp reads as follows:

Pat.

Pend. (looks ENGRAVED on the blade)

Case XX (Lightening bolt S)

.....SS..... (Lightening bolt S w/10 dots)

USA (Lightening bolt S)

Pat. Pend. Looks ENGRAVED on the blade because the other part is a regular deep style stamp. See picture of stamp.

Tang stamp dates this knife to 1980. Knife has not been sharpened and blade looks new. Back spring is bright and clean. PLEASE SEE PICTURES. Super nice knife! T is just the smallest amount of play in the lock position. It's a very, very, small amount of play....no biggie to me anyway but thought I would mention it. This auction is for the knife only. A s you probably know, you press the CASE shield to unlock the blade. ! ANOTHER interesting thing is the center pin is unique. Most Sidewinders the center pin is round on both sides. On this one, the center pin is round on one side and is hexagon shaped on the other...you can see the six sides. See photos.
