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!

Schrade 49'ers series knives

I have an interesting situation here. Maybe someone can help.  I was told that the Schrade 49'er's series consisted of the 491, 497, 498 and 499 of which I have most of them. A Schrade 147 with the 49'er sheath showed up in ebay. Was the 147 one of the 49'er knives?? I would like more info on the 49'er series.. What knives were included in it ?? Any info would help!!!!

    49ers sheath knives

    Based on this I would have to say NO, the 147 was not part of the series

    Here is a flyer for the Schrade 49er Series Knives...

    The 147 is NOT part of the 49er Series as Jan stated.  I hope this helps.
