This announcement was posted on the Case Collector's Club Forum today.
Main focus of cCc responders so far is on the revelation
that this line will be made in China
and the anticipated ramifications from this change in Case's manufacturing philosophy.

A MESSAGE FROM CASE PRESIDENT TOM ARROWSMITH
by Lisa Boser-Miller on Wed Nov 09, 2011 4:15 pm
..... Case is excited to introduce its new assortment of modern knives, Tec X.
An exciting evolution for Case, the Tec X from Case collection features sleek and modern knives which sport
one-handed opening and closing features, pocket clips, special alloy blade steels and innovative coatings.
This development has been carefully crafted over several years and aims to broaden the appeal of Case to new consumers, while also offering something different and modern to existing Case fans.
These knives are well suited to busy workmen, outdoor enthusiasts and for all sorts of odd jobs around the home.
The one-hand opening features and pocket clip keep hands free to perform an endless number of tasks effectively with minimum fuss and maximum multitasking.
The Tec X collection will offer a choice of 28 knives in a wide assortment of handle and blade finishes with the modern style that many knife enthusiasts are looking for today.
The assortment includes knives with anodized aluminum handles, AUS8 blades, titanium coating and a variety of finishes.
I am confident that this exciting brand extension will increase the relevancy of Case to a younger audience with an appetite for modern technology. Case knives are the most collected knives in the world, and we are humbled by our passionate brand advocates. By introducing Tex X from Case, we hope to offer something unique and practical to a whole new generation of passionate Americans.
Due to the vastly different manufacturing process required for Tec X, this assortment will be sourced from China, from a Case approved factory where the same quality standards set for the core Case products will be applied, and the same warranties will be offered. This was a carefully considered decision by Case and was taken so as not to disrupt the traditional hand-crafted manufacturing plant in Bradford, Pennsylvania, which will continue to be fully operational.
This fact was reinforced by Case owner George Duke who said
“The core products of Case will continue to be manufactured in Bradford. My family has a commitment to the community going back to 1932 that we have every intention of maintaining. Case fans, owners and collectors are also hugely important to us, and we will always strive to manufacture beautiful traditional knives to suit their tastes and needs. We also want to provide premium products to new, potential fans, and this is where Tec X comes in.”
The new Tec X from Case collection will be available to buy in the first quarter of 2012 from Case dealers.
I am extremely excited about this new development and hope you will be as well.
Sincerely,
Tom Arrowsmith
