Cigar box 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.

I guess having the box adds significant value to that knife. That's over twice the price I paid just for the knife itself. :shock:

Well that's about par. Having the original box n papers can double a knife's value IMO. Especially one like the Cigar Box editions.

Don't forget about the 100 Anniversary series in blue rope jigged bone...they were going to be in cigar boxes as well

Did those actually make it to production? I know there are some finished and unfinished 100th Anv blue bone floating around w/o a box, but none in a box made it to market from what I hear. I have one of the unfinished blue bone EODs knife.

I have never seen one in a box. I remembered that I snatched this picture from the interweb somewhere a long time ago. I had to do some ferreting to find it in my photo files and I don't know who posted it. I can't find another, better picture of that flyer either. Getting one of those knives in the box would awesome!

Not going to see them in the boxes, but Doug and some fellow in Marion, NC know a little more about that blue bone. 8)
