Schrade stockman w/ wood scales

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.

Schrade did make folding knives for Chicago Cutlery. We now know this includes Camillus and possibly Imperial as the work was sometimes farmed out to one of these other 2 companies likely depending upon work load.
The CC stockman most likely came from Schrade. Some people can differentiate a Schrade from Camillus made knife by the length of the swage on the clip blade. I cannot tell which is which because i collect both.

gwelker62: Question: Do you have a favorite knife brand for your carving work? What might that (they) be? Thanks.
