Diamond Edge Schrade 20T

Post by galvanic1882 »

I just bought this knife and was wondering if anyone else has seen one like it. I believe it is made by Schrade in the 20T pattern but with ebony handles. Any info about it would be great. It is marked on both tangs SHAPLEIGH HDW CO around a diamond with D-E in the center.

Thanks Mike

That is a beauty Mike! ::tu:: ::tu::
I think Schrade Cut Co made 3 or 4 patterns that were similar.

I have a Primble 5739, which is comparable to the others in this thread.
Too bad you can’t see this waterfall celluloid in person.
It is the best waterfall cell I have seen. It dances and flows in front of your eyes.

Schrade Cut Co sure made some nice ones! ::drool::

Wow Dale that is a beauty for sure. I love waterfall handles but don't have any in my collection. I will be looking for more with these bolsters at the Mystic show this weekend. ::ds:: ::ds:: ::ds::
