Post by zeke »

smkw still has some usa shrade waldens in stock. for under 25 bucks do you shrade collectors out their think it would be wise to pick up a couple of these while theyre still available or do you think they will really go up in value much?

zeke,

Those are recent reproductions, probably made by Bear and Son. Not likely to increase in value, IMO.

Zeke-
I have one of these SW knives and it is okay- fit & finish leaves a bit to be desired. I would take that money and find a real pre-2004 USA Schrade on ebay. You should be able to pick up a new in package Old Timer or maybe an Uncle Henry for the same price. Or you could pick up a couple perfectly good used Schrades for that price. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
