My latest 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.

This is my set Gary, there is a lot of nice Schrades down here in AUS.
Have you seen the Schrade-Loveless selling on eBay? I think it only has a short time to go.
I fell they are a must have knife to have in a Schrade Collection...

You would like these Schrade made John Primbel knives, made about 1970-73
The 8OTY is my latest find, I have been looking for one for a long time.
All I need to find now is a red bone 8OT, I think I may never find one. If I do the cost will be too high for me.

I do not have any of those yellow B/eye knives... Ken

Here is a girlyman @ 3 5/16 inches closed, genuine red bone, charmingly stained and ready to go into my pocket once I hone it. Smaller than my usual but so cute I just cannot resist. Is it considered gauche to carry more than 3 pocket knives at once?

Gary,

Schrade actually made three different sets of those Tradesman Knives! Red Bone, Green Bone and Brown Bone, gives you something else to seek out....LOL

I am fortunate enough to have all three sets as well as a partial green bone set as well. Great knives and glad to see you were able to snag a set.

My trip across country ate into my knife budget and the time I had to look for them, but I did find this one Sunday at the flea market after I got back from Florida.
Schrade Walden 4 in stockman a.jpg
Schrade Walden 4 in stockman b.jpg

The master blade is a bit short, it has about 10% snap & the shield is missing but the bone appears intact and the secondary blades have good snap.
Because it has pins through the bolsters, I would surmise it was made before about 1963.

It will make a nice EDC! :mrgreen:

Ringerygary, those Tradesman sets are superlative. I think I heard that a lot of the latterday nice stuff like this from Schrade used bone from Germany. I have a greenbone set and a couple odd redbone stockmen from those sets. Very nice!

bigdaddy, that #837 was made from 1953 to 1956. One sold for an obscene price recently, and another for a slightly more reasonable price. No wonder; they are very desirable. Good for you!

Dale, those old bone stockman knives from Schrade are just hard not to love! Hope your trip was good and I hope you got my recent email. Take care, Brother!

I picked up this little Uncle Henry last week, and someone, somewhere tried to overstamp the Schrade+ line with a double-cross. ::shrug::

More than likely you both have seconds there. Many times they were marked that way so folks would know they were seconds.

The funny thing is, a lot of times a normal person wouldn't be able to even tell that there was an issue causing the knife to be a second.

I can tell you from first hand knowledge, if a Schrade didn't pass Strict quality control, it typically did not leave the factory as a new production knife, however many left with the Tang markings either X'd out or ground off.

My Mom was a Senior Quality Control Inspector for the last twenty years of her employment with Schrade, before she retired!
