What is Your Latest Old Schrade?

Schrade Cutlery Company was founded in 1904 by George Schrade, and his brothers Jacob and William Schrade. In 1946 Imperial Knife Associated Companies, (IKAC; an association of Ulster Knife Co and Imperial Knife Co) purchased controlling interest in Schrade Cut Co and changed the name to Schrade Walden Cutlery. In 1973 the name was changed to Schrade Cutlery. In 2004 Schrade closed due to bankruptcy.

This forum is dedicated to the knives that are the legacy of this company. This forum is not the place to discuss the replica knives currently being imported using the Schrade name.

Just found this “gold” knife with J.N.C. Co. Stamped on the bail. Checked this out and it said made by G. SCHRADE 1940.

Some great knives being posted! I've enjoyed seeing them.

My last two Schrades are both oldies. The first is a Cut Co "M7703T Shackle" with the later Cut Co peach-seed jigging.

Today I landed this very early "E. Weck's Best" etched knife. It's a Cut Co 2213, as listed in the 1926 catalog, but has the earliest style of jigging and the tang stamp has no "& SON" or "& CO". This seems to suggest it was made much earlier. I'm thinking it was likely made in the arched tang-stamp period, or very shortly after, so at least 100 years old.

I like the hammer marks on the handle pins. They're less uniform but more "hand-crafted" looking. I see them as another indicator of age.

You’ve been busy bladecollectorr, very nice. ::tu::


Unused 2 3/4” 808 jr stockman in peachseed bone. However, this one has no pattern stamp, instead being stamped stainless. It also has no liner stamping like these usually do. A most excellent little knife.

Man, that's great bone. The color, the jigging, wow. Lost art or something because you never see killer bone or jigging like that anymore. Least I don't on recent knives. Congrats.

Thanks! You landed a real sweet one too. I really like those tiny stockmans and yours is about as nice as they get.
