My mom picked this up at an estate sale and gave it to me.
Ive seen lots of Case knives, but didn't know they made scissors until today. there's a bunch on ebay so probably not that rare. I tried googling but didn't find much. Didnt see any sets like this, anyone know what for? Looks like there are 2 items missing. Possibly grooming?

Lastly, what's up with the oddball pair? Look unused even though hinge screw is a little boogered up. They have an adjustable depth stop and cutout on the blades, which are sharpened as are the rest of the blades. 4.5" oal, larger pair is 6".

The Case case (lol) is in good shape and has a vintage looking Waldes USA marked zipper.

The pair with the set screw are button hole scissors.
That implies that it was a sewing set.
Nice find.
