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.

Thanks wiseguy.......I have found the PB Invincible to be the most addicting switch I have had yet.
Just got the knife last week and have fired it 500 times at least, has some blade wobble but never fails
to click open, really would like to find a NM example of the smaller business model.

I like those 5UHs and also the 55UH. The one you don't see about, is the small Green 53OT... Ken

Don't think I've seen a 55uh, but I have seen a couple 53ot's.
I keep looking for a good 51ot and keep coming up short ::facepalm::

Nice Barlow Bruce! Those usually come with brass bolsters, but that one appears to have nickle silver bolsters. ::tu::

I have a new 55UH without box on the way. They are hard to find these days.
They are getting expensive as well.
I will post a pic when it arrives.

The 53OT & 55OT were both only made for a year or two.
They appeared in the Schrade catalogs in 2002 & 2003 but were not in the 2004 price list.
I don't know how many were made, but I thing the grind of the blade put a lot of people off them.
For those of you who have not seen one they are only sharpened on one side.

Maybe I can find one of mine and get a pic if anyone wants to see one.

Dale what I noticed when I was putting both of them away is that they don't have very good snap.I think it it is a tight fit against the liner lock.I might be another reason they did not sell many.

Hi Dale Old Mate,
I have two new 55UH NIB, the 55UHs often have cracks from the brass hole at the end of the handle.
It took me quite some time and six knives, to find two NIB 55UHs without the cracks.
I found six 53OTs in the blister packs, back in 2005 and have not seen then for sale for some time now.
The 24OTX is another hard to find NIB knife.

The 3OT and 6OT knives always cost the most on eBay, I like the 3OT myself.

Hi Grant, nice knives.

Grant,
The design of the pattern and the liner lock combine to make for a pretty weak snap. I think there may have been heat treating issues with the springs as well. I have several of them in my parts knife bins with broken back springs.



Ken,
That is a nice pile there ol’ buddy! ::tu::
BTW, any luck yet on finding a Black Ice? No luck on this side of the pond.

I do not belive Schrade made the SQ111, I have all of the other SQ knives.
In the past six months I have spent all my $$$ on Schrade Loveles knives... Ken

Don't have a current pic, need to clean old pics from my camera, but is a first for me. A 61OT, which unfortunately it's previous owner apparently let sit in a pan or something holding water. I covered the 3 blades and springs with Break Free CLP. Has always worked well for me to clean up blades and springs. Will post a pic when I get some pics off the chip in my camera. Aside from having some mild rust, it appears to be a nice older Schrade. The knife was crammed full of pocket lint. ::tu:: Bull
