Latest Schrade USA acquisitions. Pics please.

I like USA made Schrades & Schrade-Walden knives...obviously. Old Timers, Uncle Henry's and the models that pre-dated those lines. Saw-cut Delrin, Stagalon, Butter-n-Molasses, etc. handles. They're all great in my book.

I am proceeding slowly with adding to my collection, in the beginning I was going like gang busters. But, the pickings are getting slim at least for good/great condition knives.

Although I am not buying much now, I never tire of seeing them or looking for them. So if you have some or have come into some, let me see them.

Eventually I will try to get all I currently have into 1(or 3) photos for this discussion. For now these will have to do.

I've seen cutouts like this on Buck knives but other than the Ducks Unlimited 152's, this is the first I've seen. Can anyone come up with a good reason why Canadian Ducks Unlimited knives have a deer on them and only a small etch of a duck's head. I know Canadians are considered polite...was Mr. Deer feeling left out?

Just picked this beauty up at an antique store for $25. A Schrade Walden 882Y Birdseye Stockman, circa1958-75.Don't think it had ever been used.

Found this Schrade Cut. Co. Washington Jack on Ebay..$54...slipped past just about everyone. The main blade is short about 1/8"..might know someone who has a blade for this knife, and can do something about the celluloid handles..

John,

Man O Man is that a find and a deal!! Good job on grabbing it!

Doug,

That is such an amazing frame, I can image that knife new and being in a lumber store. We would have bought it in a heartbeat! If you do the repairs, can we see them please?

The seller didn't know what he had and advertised it as SCHRADE POCKET KNIFE WITH ADVERTISING C D SHAMBURGER LUMBER YARD NEAT OLD KNIFE It only got 8 bids from 4 bidders. Just proves an old blind hog can find an acorn now and then. I'll be sending it to Herman Williams for white bone handles and a new blade if he can find one...if he can't find a blade, he'll re-profile the end of the existing blade. When it comes back I'll be sure and post pictures....I'd like to have it re-handled in Mother of Pearl, but Herman doesn't have the setup for working with MOP and I just can't imagine letting anyone else work on it.

Back when i first joined this group...about 10 seconds after I became a member of iKC..I remember thinking that I'd have to watch for a good 14OT, Brad's collection of them looked so good. There was always another knife I had my eye on and I just kept putting it off. Back in March, I found this one on Ebay and scooped it up. I was just about the ugliest 14OT I had ever seen, but I knew Herman Williams could turn that sow's ear into a silk purse....and I wasn't wrong.

I hadn't thought about it being for sale, I was imagining being the employee that knife was given to.

Good get, Doug. That 14 OT looks great, a lot better than the way you bought it.
