Schrade USA LB7 Bear Paw lockback – NOS

The Schrade Cutlery Company was once the largest knife manufacturer in the United States. Founded in 1904 by brothers Joe, Lewis and George Schrade in Walden, New York, the Company went into receivership in 2004.

The Uncle Henry LB7 folding hunter was introduced in 1979 and remained in the line until the plant closed in 2004. It is essentially the same size and shape as the Buck 110 folding hunter (see the Outdoor Accessories index page), uses a similar lockback mechanism and competed for the same market share. Like the Buck 110, the LB7 came with a leather sheath for belt carry.

This is one of the most expensive and impressive Uncle Henry knives and it looks the part. LB7's were produced with either wood or Staglon scales. It is a large, heavy knife, weighing over a half-pound and measuring 5" long when closed. With the blade open, you are holding an 8-3/4" long hunting knife. This is not a pocketknife; use the supplied brown leather belt pouch for carrying this knife in the field.
