Case has 2 numbering systems. The reason is that one numbering system identifies the specific knife (SKU

number) and the other system (pattern number) tells you more about the knife.

Whether you are buying logo knives for your company, or just blank knives, these 2 numbering systems will help you find the right knife.

Each knife has 2 numbers assigned to it.

SKU number and a Pattern.

SKU number (Model Number)

This is like any other SKU number. It identifies the item according to its size, shape, color, number of blades.

Pattern

The pattern is not as specific as a SKU number. Several SKU numbers could have the same pattern. Their difference would most likely be a different handle color. The purpose of the “Pattern” is to encode information about a knife into only a few digits.

For example 6347 is a pattern.

The first number is the handle material (6)
The second number is the number of blades (3)
The last 2 numbers are the pattern number, (47). 47 is the code for a Medium Stockman. 54 is the code for a Trapper.
Sometimes the number is followed by 2 letters (SS for Stainless steel, or CV for Chrome vanadium)

Handle materials:

1- Solid hardwood

2- Smooth black synthetic thermoplastic rubber

3- Smooth yellow synthetic

4- Smooth synthetic

5– Genuine stag

6- Jigged bone, jigged synthetic, jigged laminate, smooth bone

6.5- Bonestag

7/P- Curly maple, rosewood, smooth laminate

8- Genuine mother-of-pearl

9- Imitation mother-of-pearl

10- Micarta, G-10

I- Ivory, Imitation ivory

EX- Exotic (Giraffe, Ostrich, Volcanic Glass, and other Exotic Handle Materials)

7 Answers to the Most FAQ About Engraved Buck Knives

When a potential customer asks about engraved Buck knives, they will definitely ask some of these questions:

Buck Knives Folding Hunter Lockback Knife 110

How soon can we have them? Production time is usually 10 business days after proof approval. If you need them for an event sooner than that, we might be able to meet your deadline. You might have to use UPS 2 day, or UPS next day air for the delivery method.
What kind of art file do you need? Vector art is the best art. Examples are .ai and .eps files. Please convert all text to curves. Your artist would know what that means. Other types of files may work, and we can convert them for a small fee.
Is laser engraving permanent? Laser burns your image into the substrate. The image cannot be scratched off or wear off. It is definitely permanent.
Can you imprint our color logo? Sorry, laser cannot do colors. However, if the substrate is anodized aluminum, the laser will burn down through the surface color and expose the metal color.
How much of a down payment do you need? Normally 100%, since this is a custom order. You may apply for an open account with us, and pay by check when the order is done. Acceptance of an open account may take a week or two, depending on the references that you give.
Do you take credit cards? Absolutely. We take all major credit cards.
Can we see a sample before you put our order into production? There are two kinds of samples. A virtual sample can be emailed to you for your approval. There is no charge for this. If you want to hold an engraved Buck knife in your hand, that has your imprint, that is called a speculation sample (or spec sample). They are not free. They normally cost the price of the knife, setup charge, shipping, and $50.

3 Little Changes That Will Make a Big Difference in Your Personalized Pocket Knives

Many business leaders like to show their appreciation to their employees, and folding knives are a great way to do that. Personalized pocket knives are knives that have the person’s name somewhere on them, besides the company’s logo. Here are 3 tips to make your project a success.

Personalized Pocket Knives With More Than a Name

Put the recipient’s name on the outside, where it can be seen, instead of on the blade. The handle or the metal bolster are the best places. Your logo can go somewhere else on the knife.
Instead of engraving their first name and last name, engrave their first name and number of years of service. That adds more depth to your gift.
Packaging is everything. If you can order a metal or wood presentation box, your gift will be much more impressive. Case knives have optional presentation containers that add to the perceived value of the gift knife.

Where Do You Buy Pocket Knives Engraved with Your Logo?

Case® Zytel Caliber Camo Lockback Pocket Knife Engraved

In my experience, I have never found a retail store that is capable of selling pocket knives engraved with your logo. Initials and lettering, yes. Logo, no. That is probably because the equipment needed for laser engraving a logo is much more expensive than a “letter scratcher”. Any jewelry store and trophy shop has one of those machines. The best place for you to look is online. There are a few pocket knife engravers on the internet. That’s the best place to go to get pocket knives engraved with your corporate logo. Laser engraving knives is an art and science. Why?

Not all steel (or wood, bone, synthetic material) is able to be neatly laser engraved. The hardness and makeup of the steel may not allow the job to come out neatly, without a halo burn, and without rough edges.
The imprint has to be the right size and located in the same location on each knife. To do this, a jig has to be made for each knife style.
The timing has to be adjusted to get the best imprinted image.
The laser power has to be adjusted to also get the best results.
The final color of the imprinted area can be adjusted by using certain chemicals in the process. They make the image more noticeable. There’s nothing worse than seeing a silver image against a silver background.
Cleaning up the knife after the job. If this isn’t done, the laser dust can discolor the areas on which it is sitting. This anomaly is permanent, and cannot be erased or removed.
