show your uncle henry's

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.

168uh-w. Don't see many of these. Seen one on another knife forum but it did not have this coloring. This knife's color is more like the photo on collectors of schrade web site. Not sure what the handle material is. Maybe someone can help?

James, is that one you got recently from ebay?
I have been seeing a lot of 168UHs that have non-standard handles.
I think they are unfinished blades from the factory that someone put handles on after the factory closed.
I don't think those handles ever were listed in the catalogs.

Maybe someone else knows for sure; Eric, Cal, Tom, Hal?

Hey Dale. I purchased this from a collector in VA. I'm told he got it from blue ridge knives from inventory acquired from the schrade auction. This is the only one I've seen that matches the pictured on collectors of schrade r us

I think that's most likely legit, I've seen a few like that with an Old Timer shield, as well as one done for LL Bean that had the old fake wood delrin handles that I think were used on the Russell barlow. I think yours is likely an unfinished example. What you have to watch out for are the ones with the odd wood handles, they're likely re-makes.

Here's a somewhat rare setup, an original LB-7 in the original display case that was available for about a year during the LB-7 rollout. These were given to stores to be used as a countertop display, not to be sold. Along with this display would be a shpment of LB-7's in the standard white Uncle Henry boxes. Has a hard plastic lid and even came with a chamois. Knife is serial number 175:

That's good stuff right their Keith. Like that sheath with the 227! Do you know what year the lb7 had the blade etch? What is the serial# on the 171?

James,

I believe 2001-2002 on the LB7DP but I'm not sure ::shrug::

The serial number on the 171UH is 03349.

Nice group Keith! I believe that etch was exclusive to knives bound for Europe, they required the type of steel to be prominent on the blades.

Jay, thanks for checking that out, I'm not sure if they had an image for that setup or not, I'll have to check. This is one of the first ads for the LB7, although I seem to recall one where the hand had some dirty fingers as well :shock:

Nice set of LB's Keith. Those are the older stamps, with no Uncle Henry written in script correct? I think there were a lot of SNAP ON sets, but if these are not etched, I would believe they were a production set offered to retailers.
