Many people collected Schrade knives over the years. Almost everyone had to have a Schrade. Much has changed, but they still make Schrade Knives and now they are coming out with new steels and new handle materials.
So old fan or new collector, Lets talk about Schrade!

Brad,
it really is a gem. Thanks for your comment. I love finding an old knife like that one that has never been sharpened.

Thanks Tom, When I bought the 808 , I did not realize how small it actually was. I found it on Ebay.

Ricky,
nice collection, I can especially identify with the 787. I have an old one that I bought new in the 60's. It skinned many a coon, fox, and ringtail; quite afew bobcats and coyotes-but thecoyotes were too tight skinned for what little $ the fur would bring! Also possums were only worth 25cents and there was no shortage of coons, so we often took the cheap possums in on the cob and let the hide buyer skin 'em!

Cool, it is neat to hear a story about how these knives have been used. It still looks like it has a lot of years left on it.
Mar 28, 2014
Waggoner, Alan
I agree!

We use to sell the possums whole to, not worth skinning.
That's a fine looing Muskrat, Ricky.

I am looking to buy a Schrade LB7. Can anyone tell me what too much would be on the cost of these ? I recently lost one on Ebay at the 42.00 mark, with 5.00 shipping.

Ricky,
The country of manufacture, condition and extras(ie. sheath, box etc.) will drive up the price. If you are looking for a collectible, expect bidding to go as high as $100 for a complete unused sample.
But if you're looking for a USA made user in good condition they can still go as high as $60 w/ sheath. I picked one up one on eBay last year w/o a sheath for $30 shipped. Then got a new Schrade sheath for $12 shipped. Hell of a knife, more heft to it than the 110. I actually like it better than the 110 because the weight.

Just my opinion, but either of those would be nice to have at the "Buy It Now" price if you're looking for a nice EDC, or even to clean up for display. Blades are full on both, the brass could use a little touching up on both and the serialized one has some pitting on the bolster (probably stored in the leather sheath for a long time), but if the serial number is worth the extra money to the buyer then go for it. If not, $35 is a very fair price for a USA made Schrade lockback.

Ricky L McConnell
Thanks for the help everyone. This is what makes this site great. Brad , I bought the 34.99 one, thanks for the link. I am curious about your comparison to the Buck 110 which I think is a heavy built lockblade. I cannot wait to compare the two. Thanks again everybody!
Jul 9, 2014
Brad T.
Glad I could help Ricky. You will be able to tell the weight once you have them both in your hands.
Jul 9, 2014
Ricky L McConnell
Brad, how do you store your lockblades ? The Buck 110 and I am sure the LB7 are too big for a normal knife roll. I would not think that you keep them in their shealths.

I would like to find a list of all the LB series knives so I can tell what I need to complete this series in my collection. Does anyone have information on these knives ?

LB4 is by far the rarest since not many were made! If you can find one, expect to pay dearly for it. I have .all of these except the LB9 which is basically the LB8 with a gut hook.
I hope this helps and good luck on your hunt to complete the LB series.

Ricky,
Sorry for the long awaited response.
I do keep them in the knife roll that is my page's wallpaper. Of course the knife roll is 16" wide x 72" long. It is very heavy.

Thanks for the list Tom.
Yeah Brad, I do remember that roll now , I had forgotten about it.

Anyone bought a Taylor made Schrade LB7 ? I am thinking about picking one up at SMKW to see the difference from the USA one I have.

I can't call myself a Schrade collector because I own exactly one. I recently purchased one of the new Schrade SCHF 37's and wow this thing is a beauty especially for the price. It did not come perfect, the blade sharpened a little off-center, but that could be fixed. Great knife for the price and compares nicely to my Ka-Bar Becker BK-7.

Hi all, I'm a newbie on the boards, so please be kind! My uncle recently passed away, and my aunt wants to rid herself of my uncle's collection of knives. I plan on keeping a few, primarily because I know my uncle used them and loved them, but the rest I'll probably put on ebay.
So I have questions about a Schrade USA Uncle Henry LB8 knife. And I'll do my best to successfully post photos!
It has a serial number, but I can't seem to find online what this serial number identifies. Also, the blade itself lacks the phrase "Uncle Henry" inscription. Is this normal? Any guidance is appreciated!

Britney,
Uncle Henry is a part of Schrade, or was when this was made. The LB stands for LockBack click here to see an example with some explaination
