I have always been 'aware' of Schrade Fixed Blades but I had no idea that there were so many covering such a wide spectrum.
Really enjoying this thread

So it turns out I'm real good at taking bad pics of nice knives. This is a schrade "Wanda Edge" fixed blade. Hard to get a pic of the etch. I think just wiping the knife down with a cotton cloth diminished the etch a bit. Looks like the original owner inscribed the date he purchased it in the leather sheath. Don't really bother me though. I kind of like it. Last thing I need is another schrade mystery to try and unravel. Always like to see the fancy sheaths from back then.

This was given to me at least 40 years ago maybe more.

That's a great UH. Those things are wicked sharp. Wish I had one to use. Seems like it would do a fine job

I posted this pic in the general knife discussion but should have posted it here....5 SFO's and 14 by Herman

Cal, that is one fine looking 160 that you got from Herman.

Very Crafty of you.
Re: Any chance of a sticky for fixed blade Schrades?
I thought I better post this as I have had this knife since I bought it new in '89. I only carried it a couple times and it has spent all these years in a box under my bed. It was only this spring that I took it out and re-oiled the blade. It has very little patina and no rust that I can see, however, I did have it in it's original leather sheath for most of that time (I now have it in a cardboard sleeve that I made out of an Apple Jacks box as I lost the original cardboard sleeve).
I also have an LB1 and an LB5 with a broken lock spring that I bought in "86. The first Schrade I bought was an LB7, but I sold it soon after as I really didn't like the size.

Those 165s are fine knives. The original sheath would have been leather. Thanks for showing it; maybe you can put it to work.

I think this qualifies as a Fixed Blade....100th Anniversary Bowie

Re: Any chance of a sticky for fixed blade Schrades?
Tom, you sure know how to make a fellow jealous with that Bowie... All I got are these itty bitty ones. I suppose that tile is from the Schrade Plant too.

Re: Any chance of a sticky for fixed blade Schrades?
Cal, I got these two slightly different models stamped SCCO (Schrade Cut Co) last week to go with my first one. I thought I'd post the sheath that might be original to the larger model to the right (1st photo) since you inquired about a sheath with my 1st SCCO. The knife on the left was the one in that sheath but if it's an original SCCO sheath (which I have no clue) then I think it would belong with the knife on the right based on size. There's no markings on the sheath but it looks old enough and the brass snap button is not your everyday plain type either. Also, it's a left-handed sheath. What do you think?tongueriver wrote:Some righteous dandelion diggers out there!
In the 2nd photo are the other SCCO knives and then their sheaths below that, accordingly. Both sheaths that came with the new arrivals were a package deal and are pretty old but the sheath in the middle I doubt belongs to either knife. The sheath on the right is the new one that I bought for my 1st SCCO. I dyed & burnished it. Thanks

Re: Any chance of a sticky for fixed blade Schrades?
I think the sheath on the left could be original but that is just a guess. If another one of those knives surfaces with the same kind of sheath then we would have a near 100% likelihood of an original match. Until then we can just pretend.

Beautiful Schrade blades, gentlemen. Some I have never seen before. Very nice. These, on the other hand, are your average Joes - 154OT Drop point, 158OT Guthook (not my favorite) Schrade Walden 165OT Woodsman, NOS 152OT Sharpfinger & my user 152OT Sharpfinger.
