Case Burnt Natural Bone Deep Canyon Jig Baby Doc, Carbon Steel Damascus (27234)

This Baby Doc is part of the Burnt Natural Bone Family featuring Damascus blades. The beauty and reputation of Damascus steel stretches back to before medieval times and the original method of production was lost in 1700's which adds to the mystique and allure of this famous metal. The modern technique of creating Damascus steel involves forging together multiple layers of steel to create a remarkably strong blade that features intricate wavy patterns.

The Case Baby Doc always delivers, but only for a limited time! This pint-sized knife was modeled after the full-sized Doctor’s Knife (‘85SP). The pattern was named by the Case Collectors Club community at the Zippo Case International Swap Meet in 2004 and was later introduced to the public in January, 2005.

The knife hearkens back to a time when doctors carried a knife like this in their medicine bags to cut sutures and bandages, crush pills, and mix medicines while conducting house calls.

This Baby Doc is fitted with a high carbon steel blade known for its high tensile strength, wear resistance, and toughness. Many prefer this steel for its edge retention and ease of re-sharpening. Since these are not stainless steel blades, a thin coat of oil applied on them after each use can help maintain their original finish. Made in Bradford, PA, USA from domestic and imported materials.

Be sure to pick up your Baby Doc before it goes back to the Vault!
