The dark red and purplish hues of the mulberry were the inspiration behind this new Case handle color. But the Mulberry tree, known for its hardiness and long life, is just as appropriate, since these seven synthetic-handled Case knives are equally "built to last". With a pewter-colored Case shield and some extra shine on the nickel-silver bolsters and stainless blades, each of these knives were made to be a part of your holiday gift-giving tradition at home.
