What Schrade RARE knife do you have

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.

Pictures of a Schrade Walden NY USA 730 Farmer Jack. Maybe the pattern with this mark is not so rare, but this example is in really good condition.

Your mint farmer's jack is both rare and very desirable as a collector. One of the very best to hit the gallery here in Schrade Land. Thanks for showing it! ::tu::

Cal, as I recall you have the equivalent Cut Co example of this pattern.

Jerry that's one of the finest farmer's jacks I've seen, what a prize! That was likely made very shortly after the change to Schrade Walden, you might as well consider it a Cut Co.

Hak that's gorgeous! You guys are showing some top shelf knives here.

RalphAlsip and Hak1911 those are both outstanding and rare Schrade Cuts especially in that condition!! Beautiful vintage folders!

Here is a Schrade Cut No. 2103 3/8 Hunter’s and Traper’s Knife. Got it at the OKCA show a few years ago. In near perfect condition. Never been sharpened post production. Peachseed jigged bone handles are perfect condition. Great blade action—very smooth and silky with no lateral blade play when open. Found the catalog rendering and description in the 1934 Schrade Supplement.

I agree Hank.

Eric, I thought that that stamp on Jerry’s beautiful knife was the last Schrade stamp. I have one stamped Walden NY no USA, which I thought was after the Cut Co stamp.
Schrade seems to be the most prolific manufacturer of the farmers jack pattern.

The farmer jack, cigar jack and hunter are unbelievable! My knife here isn't quite that shiny, lol. I grabbed this 137 as soon as I saw it listed because it's a wonda edge and I'm trying to track them all down but I didn't realize what a rare bird it was. The 137LWE was never in a catalog and after looking for info I found out only 62 of these were ever made.

Just perused this whole thread & except for Dweb's Schrade Walden 14K Gold version on the very first page, I did not see another...
so here's an older Cut Co. Lobster that I picked up from Bob Pomerantz (associated with the Warwarsing Knife Museum) at the Lehigh Valley Knife Show a couple of weeks ago... along with the listing from the 1926 catalog...

Wow guys, some great knives being posted, beautiful knives all.

Picked up this scarce 292 Fish Trapper, close to unused condition, love the fish shield, I understand these were only available for a couple years.

This one is pretty rare I think. It is unused but has a water stain over the etch. Don’t know of a way to remove it without destroying the etch.
