Comment by Brad T. on January 14, 2013 at 18:24: Just purchased from Ron James a 3OT, 6OT, LB5, 897UH, 34OT, 8OT & XT1B. I am rather excited to be receiving these knives. I will post pictures when they arrive.

Featured Comment by Craig Henry on January 6, 2013 at 18:38: Schrade always used to do just that - Old Timer for the carbon steel folks, and Uncle Henrys for the stainless folks. Now Taylor messed the whole thing up! LOL!

Comment by Jan Carter on January 6, 2013 at 18:34: I agree but I also think it would be nice if they would offer both.

Featured Comment by Craig Henry on December 30, 2012 at 17:02: I think, there's a feeling that everyone wants stainless blades. I don't know. If anyone reads various threads on other forums you can see a rather large move towards carbon steel. But then again there are ones that say they won't touch the stuff (like I used to say! LOL!).

If it was up to me I'd say keep the knives the way they were always made. Standard Schrades - carbon steel. Old Timers - carbon steel. Uncle Henrys - stainless.

Comment by Jan Carter on December 30, 2012 at 14:26: Craig,

I often wondered why some of the folks that take these old names change the steel type. Is it a cost factor?

Featured Comment by Craig Henry on December 11, 2012 at 16:45: You know, if the new Taylor-Schrades had carbon steel, especially on the Old Timers, I MIGHT try one. It just doesn't seem right.....an Old Timer with stainless blades. Sheesh.
