Re: MADE IN CHINA SCHRADES
I've now got 6 Chinese made Schrades,I don't carry larger modern locking knives very often but I picked up the SCH308S purely out of interest and I love the look of the Hinderer knives and nearly brought the Kershaw cryo as a Hinderer collaboration model,but that was out of my price range as well,so due to this getting limited carry as not UK legal I went with the Schrade 308 ,at £15 posted this was a bargain,rock solid lump of metal,I made a bullet stopper on the frame lock and put the remaining bullet case on the lanyard

Re: MADE IN CHINA SCHRADES
I'll have to get a pic of my early post-closure Schrade that is a Kentucky Rifle model of the 8OT/881. I bid too quickly on the auction site without paying much attention, not realizing it wasn't US made. I ended up winning.
The sheep's foot blade had an uneven factory grind, so I spent 30 min or so evening out the grind with a coarse diamond stone. After I finally got an even burr, I took it all the way to 7000 grit. I think this blade is now the sharpest blade of any knife in the house.
I keep the knife in the armrest console in my pickup. No complaints about this knife now.
