ADDITIONAL INFO:      I was cleaning out a spare closet in our guest bedroom when I discovered a large plastic tote of Imperial Schrade products most of them in clampacks and some that were bulk packed after the Schrade bankruptcy sale. Many of these I purchased right after Schrade went out of business and then in the years after the bankruptcy sale. Some I purchased in stores, some I purchased online but they are products from the Imperial Schrade Corporation that was headquartered in Ellenville New York. A lot of people may not be aware that Schrade made a number of tools and being kind of a knife & tool guy, a company that makes both knives and tools is awesome as far as I’m concerned! Schrade had a line of tools called Apex under another line of tools called Tradesmen. I never figured the logic of the two brands making nearly identical tools but that’s what they did.

 

This is the Apex Barlow made by Imperial Schrade Corporation in their factory in Ireland. It is a nice lightweight knife and a nice addition to any Barlow collection. This was not in the line of knives I found in the guestroom closet but I happened to remember them and since I collect Barlows I saved one for myself and will sell this one to another Barlow collector here on AAPK. This one knife doesn’t take up a lot of room but when you multiply it by hundreds, they really take up lots of room. Help me make more room in my house, by a knife two!
