SCHRADE WALDEN NY

Schrade Cutlery Company was founded in 1904 by George Schrade, and his brothers Jacob and William Schrade. In 1946 Imperial Knife Associated Companies, (IKAC; an association of Ulster Knife Co and Imperial Knife Co) purchased controlling interest in Schrade Cut Co and changed the name to Schrade Walden Cutlery. In 1973 the name was changed to Schrade Cutlery. In 2004 Schrade closed due to bankruptcy.

This forum is dedicated to the knives that are the legacy of this company. This forum is not the place to discuss the replica knives currently being imported using the Schrade name.

Hak, the rat tail bolsters were a holdover from Schrade Cut. Co.. Schrade-Walden carried over many of the patterns from Cut. Co for several years before they started making changes. Nice example!

We call them "hawkbills" in my parts. I have quite a few, but mine are Kutmaster and Boker, which along with Camillus was frequently issued to coal miners, and thus pretty easy to get locally used, but often in not too great of shape, as often, the tip's wore off from skinning cable, and all of mine are to some degree. Schrade called it either a linesman's knife or pruner, depending on length.


Very nice looking knife! The cocobolo handles sure are purty! I've wanted one, but this is one of the pricier hawkbills to collect
