There is a period of time experienced by every business, when success and the “good life” seem to come easily. The “Golden Years” for W.R.Case & Sons Cutlery came during the half century-plus of control and guidance by chairman J.R. Case. “Russ” as close friends and relatives fondly called him, managed Case Cutlery with a style that was both authoritative and unpredictable. From his formation of the company in 1902 until his death in 1953 J.R. was the final decision-maker at Case.

W.R. Case & Sons is today a vibrant, growing company, filled with expectations for the future. Only a rich history can create a company with that potential.
