You may already have this, but if not, does it help? I don't know who put this together but I'll give Orvet the credit.

Schrade Cutlery old electricians knife

[sextonknifeworks]

Here is one I just picked up, The main blade still has the faint etch "BOS'N'S MATE". The big shield/medallion says WALL WALKLAID ROPE.

[koldgold]

This is another 153UH I have just added to my collection.
It has a carbon blade, no stamped nimbers. Any help with a date when it was made? ... Ken

[tongueriver]

Sexton, that S. Cutco Bosun knife is stellar! Thanks for showing!

[orvet]

Ken,
I have one that is carbon steel also. Mine has been used and abused.
The words in your tang stamp and the arrangement are the same as mine, but your stamp appears to be wider than the stamp on mine, and my tang stamp has been struck so deep that the entire stamping is framed in a rectangular recess. Interesting variation. If I had to guess, I would think mine was earlier than yours, but it has no serial numbers either.

Just curious, how were you able to establish yours is carbon steel?

Here is my latest old Schrade.

Schrade Walden #208, an open stock knife. It is 5”, has a stainless clip master blade and a multipurpose secondary blade that is; ruler, scaler, hook disgorger & has a magnetic tip.
Handles are yellow celluloid.

The hole in the mark side, rear bolster is for straightening bent fishhooks.
Made from 1957-1963.

The hook sharpening stone in the handle has been replaced with a shield, but it is a proper nickel silver shield.

Schrade Walden #832 stockman propwood
3.25"
Year=???

[tongueriver]

832: 3-5/16"; Serpentine pattern; clip, sheepfoot & pen blades; Propwood handle; brass liners, N/S bolsters & shield; 1953-1977; $10.00. This is from Dale's compilation of open stock Schrade info on this very forum (Look up at header for Articles & Research). We know that the 832s received Delrin handles in 1960 or soon after, in a mold that gave it a "barnboard" look. So I would guess your knife to be between 1953 and 1960.

Oh my, mercy me. I think I'm gonna have a heart attack. That's... That's... Words fail me.

[orvet]

I thought I posted this one somewhere, but I guess it fits here as well.
It needs some work on the blades, but is fairly decent for the price I got it for <$25.
I have to patch a piece in the rear handle too.
But I was happy with it for the price, (though someone should be beat for what they did to the blade)!

[tongueriver]

Dale, is the little hole for a shackle?

[Just Plain Dave]

You can shoot me Dale! Just send that ratty old thing over here first!

[orvet]

Dale, is the little hole for a shackle?

That is the only thing I can think it would be for Cal.

If it were for a shackle it would have to have been this type, as the hole does not go through the center liner.

[Miller Bro's]

Here is the one I have, with what is left of the original chain, the button hook is missing.
