John Primble - schrade-made ?

Post by BatJak »

Mornin',
I am wondering if anyone could tell me if this John Primble 5514-S was made by schrade. Or who made it...
(not my pics, borrowed from this site)

It doesn't say India Steel Works or Germany and has no star on tang.....

I'm sure it's not boker or Camillus...

could it be Utica?

I'd say Utica would be a very good guess.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Yes, a relatively recent knife made by Utica for Bluegrass Cutlery.
