Old Timer 147OT Pro Fisherman with unusual Maroon Handles. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
This pattern was listed in the catalogs from 1993 until 2004. I do not recall ever seeing it listed with Maroon handles. Perhaps this is a SFO (special factory order) for someone, although I bought several of these at a retail store. This knife is still in the unopened clampack. It seems to be a promotional knife of some sort as it is packaged with a free pair of Schrade Tradesman shears. I have several pair of these shears, one of which I use regularly in my shop. They are good shears, despite the fact that they were made in China, (NOTE- The knife is made in the USA). These would make dandy bait shears.
The inclusion of these shears makes me think that this knife was made within the last 2-3 years that Schrade was in business.
The Catalogs list this knife as 13-1/2 or as 12-1/2 depending on which year of catalog you read, however this knife measures 13 inches. Just another one of those funny things about Schrade........they made good knives, but I think catalogs were an afterthought.
****************
PLEASE NOTE- I have included pictures of the knife in the clampack as well as pictures of another knife I have like this out of the package. The one you will receive is the sealed clampack with knife, sheath and shears.
