Vintage Case XX Knife Early Model 3 blade. This item was found at an estate sale here in Palm Springs Ca. Any added info would be pleasing.

Ok, first, this is not a peanut. A peanut is a serpentine JACK knife (all blades pivoted at the same end); this is called a "stock" knife. Stock knives are serpentine handles with three blades (rarely, four), normally a clip (on the right in your pics) a sheepsfoot (next to it), and a spey, which is why it's call the "stock" pattern; the spey is used for castrating livestock. Your sheepsfoot and spey blades are seriously worn.
The "Case/XX" mark (WITHOUT "Tested" before the XX) was used between 1945 (often misstated as 1940 but Case used the pre-war "Tested XX" mark until shortly after WWII) and "Case/XX/U.S.A." which was used after 1964.
