ADDITIONAL INFO:      This pattern was a carryover pattern from Schrade Cut Co. The Schrade Cut Co number was 8654MT. The first listing I see of it in the Schrade Walden catalogs is in the 1950 catalog, but the earlier catalogs can be incomplete. The last listing I see for this knife was in 1958. These tiny nickel silver tip bolsters were undoubtedly a little difficult and probably expensive to make, which is probably why it was discontinued. This is a great knife in excellent condition. A great display piece!
