Nice finds Scott and David I hit garage sales this fine AM and gut a Smiths tri-hone and a Made in USA slide knife all for five bucks

[treefarmer]

Another nice pile Scott, and Gdog that hone looks like a great find. ___Dave

[garddogg56]

Thanx Dave and TF YOUR RIGHT I put an edge on a 440c Buck in no time flat

[FRJ]

I went to a flea market this morning and brought back this nice whittler. I paid $5 for it.
Tip of the coping blade is dinged up a bit and exposed blades took on some rust. Missing a cover pin.
Other than that it's in fine shape. 3 7/8".
No pattern number.

I wonder how it would look with mottled white bone covers?

[kootenay joe]

Wow, a Schrade-Walden 804 whittler with saber grind for $5 !
This could be Deal of the Year.

[TripleF]

That is MAC Joe!

[djknife13]

Good deal and nice knife. I've never seen that little "V" at the end of the master blade before. I have a few of those and I'm going to have to pull them out to see if that is in mine too. I love the blades on those knives and yours even still has the etch, Nice. ___Dave

[FRJ]

Thanks for the comments, guys.
Dave, I have a Schrade Cut. Co. with that "V" accommodation in the wedge. 3 5/8"

[djknife13]

I dug mine out. I have a black one with a saber ground blade with the notch, a brown one with a flat grind without the notch and a Craftsman stamped black flat ground one without the notch. the first two are stamped Schrade Walden and the Craftsman is obviously made for them by Schrade So , the saber ground have the notch and the flat ground ones don't.___Dave

That's a honey Joe gut me a 100yr annaversary NRA coin 1971 and a Lufkin micrometer at yard sales today

[Duffer]

That is one classy Schrade Cut Co Whittler Joe! The $5 Schrade Walden isn't bad either Here is a Schrade Walden 804 Whittler I own with peach seed bone handles. Love these Sabre primary blades. Lloyd

[bighomer]

Those are some prime knives there fellers great finds. I got bombed with this one.

[Just Plain Dave]

I suppose I'd feel different if my Grandpaw John hadn't sharpened the heck out of his Camillus whittler. instead of /\ it's more blunt. I really tend towards flat grind if truth be told.

Biggie H, that's an odd duck. I don't believe I've ever seen one quite like it. Any history you can provide??

[FRJ]

Thanks, Lloyd.
Your Schrade Walden is far better looking than mine. I wish I had those covers. I plan on getting my covers replaced.
No pattern number on mine. I wonder if it's a 804? It sure looks like yours. How long is your knife?
Thanks again.

[Duffer]

Joe, this 804 of mine is 3 & 7/8 inches long. Lloyd

2 thumbs up!

[bighomer]

Jerry this thang is a China buck 371, I reckon you could call it a barhead stockman razor sharp out the box pretty fair F & F. all stainless construction .

What are the handles, some kind of Micarta or some such? I wonder what made them decide to leave off the cap bolster. I've never seen a stockman style knife with only one bolster. Hmmm

Edit: Looked it up. Handles are G-10.

[bighomer]

I thought maybe g-10 but wasn't sure( thx for the info) they grip pretty good. Edge kinda sharp, but what the het you can't beat the price. First bare head stockman I ever saw.

[Colonel26]

That's an interesting Buck.

[TripleF]

Found these little gems today.....

The little one is G. Schrade ball pull. Purty slick little gizmo.....blade whips out when you pull the ball. Had never seen one before...

[jerryd6818]

From what I can tell from the picture, the ball pull looks like it's in very good condition too. Good find, Scott.
