I'll give it to him... It IS the only one I've ever seen in 4 months of collecting.
I also just did a google search that took about 90 seconds, and I didn't find a single one.

He might be correct! ::ds::

I've seen about half a dozen on ebay this year, and one even became mine. It is sort of rare, but not like he's saying.

But that one pales in deference to this one that I copied out from ebay about ten years ago. Almost unbelievable. Enjoy:
"SCHRADE HISTORY: Schrade knives are certainly one involving America’s finest knives whose features received value through nationwide and also the globe at the same time. Founded in 1975 by Stewart Taylor, your Taylor Brand names possess created, allocated and also created high-quality knives which have slept higher than the game. Having its technologically advanced components, carbon metal knives have been the delight involving Schrade knives. Hand-crafted together with utmost detail, Schrade knives have created a name that is certainly regarded all over the world.

Having a number of models to be able to appeal to diverse discerning style, the particular SCHRADE KNIVES customized knives in order to meet the requirements of the buyers who will be either enthusiastic cutlery collectors as well as first-time people that are impressed using its overall performance. Deals with tend to be involving stag, metal, acicular bone, mommy of gem, buffalo grass horn, black and other durable resources that will tolerate fantastic force without suffering appearance. Getting one of these is sure to keep the collection a single chef’s knife seeking much better. Schrade has been supplying knives for civilians and troops likewise going back hundred years ago. However, these people never have usually tried it under the parent firm they are now under. That they used to be an independent company and have already been doing this beyond Ellenville, New York since the year 1904. With regards to three decades previously, they joined up with Jones and Wesson within the father organization Taylor Makes, in the Appalachian mountains of Kingsport, Tennessee. Because his or her brand modified does not always mean Schrade knives have grown to be any a smaller amount capable of ending up being named among the best knives on the market. They have interpreted their unyielding good quality to the modern day manufacturing techniques, bringing about more offered, exceptional knives that any of our fantastic grandparents will be proud to obtain. Unfortunately, it wasn’t constantly an even path with regard to Schrade. Several blade hobbyists scrambled to acquire a common cutlery while that for series. Tiny do they already know Taylor Brands would likely rapidly choose the model upward off the floor, pull out their own graphic, and initiate manufacturing knives below their own industry name once more.

That old Schrade knives, LIKE THIS ONE, tend to be well-known knives using this brand name. It’s been useful for the particular military as well as legislations enforcements due to the sturdiness as well as reliability. It has saw-cut addresses along with dime increases. Additionally, it has an inlay safeguard where the old timers press has become engraved. Considering that the manufacturing involving Schrade knives was halted. There are only a few of those that you can seldom uncover and you’ll need to look up well on the internet and using specialized retailers to get a single Schrade knife."

I've been trying for several minutes to come up with something funny to type in response but this is just way too sad. :(

The BS is just getting way too deep.

Just think of the number of people in the country who fall for this kinda crap.

Maybe the guy really thinks he has "the rarest Schrade knife ever produced".
If so he obviously has done ZERO research.
If not, well then, he's either a liar/thief or fell out of the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down.

hey... that's kinda funny... right?

wait... any idea what the most valuable USA Schrade would be?

Quite a few of these were sold after Schrade closed their doors. Rarity does not always equate to a high value. A Schrade collector may find them of interest but not at that crazy price, even divided by 10 would be high.

That thar be good humor alright; thanks for sharing! I am always tempted to 'educate' these knucklehead sellers; every time that I have attempted to do so has resulted in unpleasantries. Once in awhile I forget and try again, but these attempts are getting farther apart and maybe someday I will have finished learning the lesson.
