Schrade Cut Co. Doctor's Knife

Post by Dragunski »

Some of this knife may be real?

The small blade has definitely got a bad stamp.

Guy calls it "mint".

That isn't anywhere near mint and it's not a doctor's knife/pill crusher either. Having a butt cap has no medical significance what so ever.

Nice looking knife but it just doesn't sign true.

It's the oddist looking "Doctors knife" I've ever seen and I've seen a couple over the years. I guess you can call 'em what ever you please. ::shrug::

My repro Schrade catalog has a knife like this on page 90. Listed as No. 2643 3/4

Balloon pattern jack knife, seal cap, 4" long.

But the bolster looks round. This one looks flattened.

How could the bolster be flat on one side, and round on the other?

Some of these big Cut Cos are extremely rare. I've never seen any of the 4-5/16" stock knives, either. They're all 4".

But this one has been messed with. For sure the smaller blade's been replaced. And the big blade with the serif stamp doesn't look right either. It should have a sans-serif stamp with the letters the same size as the others. And $1750? Pretty outrageous.

Nothing really jumps out at me about this knife. Of course it might've been cleaned up a little, but otherwise it looks good. I've never owned one of these knives but I've seen a few on eBay and they are pretty rare. You sometimes see them with Shapleigh's Diamond Edge mark, made on contract by Schrade.

If you blow up the stamp on the smaller blade, you can see that it's been carved with a machine. It's very shiny and full of evenly spaced dots from an etcher. I also think the larger blade is from a repro knife.

And it's certainly not mint.

Now we can see the difference in the shape of the master clip blade.

It's always a bad sign when the handles are worn more than the blades.
