My Schrades, if I may

[orvet]

Nice collection.
It is great that you have family heirloom knives!
I have my granddad's 34OT with a Wharncliffe mod on the clip blade and my dad's 225H and 2 or 3 other Schrades that were dad's.
They're are my favorite Schrades!

Nice collection. Schrade is the best if you ask me.

I've got a few Schrades in my pile but nothing close to that many. Very nice collection. Thanks for sharing them with us.

What a fine gallery of knives! I see some of my favorites in there. I bet you had fun rounding them up for the photo op. Thanks for sharing them. But don't stop now; there are some you don't have yet.

Epic collection dude.....especially your dad's and uncles knives. So cool.

What a collection of Schrades!

I have to say that the very first one is by far my favorite but there are some GREAT sleepers in there.

You have some very nice patterns there, BatJack....
Tom, I'd say you're being a might modest when you say you have a "few" Schrades .

It has been an enjoyable hobby.
I have a bunch of knives that aren't schrade but these are my favorite.

I found the 51OT Big Timer in a small town surplus store in the corner of a display case.
It was in a clam pack if I recall. I snatched it up because when I was little I remember one
in the display at the local Gibson's discount center back in the 70's sometime.
I thought it was the bee's knees because of the size and shape of the blade.
Never did get one though.... (time travel 30 odd years to the future) BAM GOTCHA

Never have carried it, just whittled with it a bit.

My wife doesn't understand my knife obsession.
One time, while putting away dishes, I jokingly said "ya got enough tupperware in this cabinet?"
To which she replied "ya got enough pocket knives?"
I shut up at that point...

Listed in the catalogs 1978-1981 only. One of my many favorites.

WOW

thanks, I didn't know it was such a short run.
Older and more rare than I thought.

There is only a little blood. Very appropriate, especially if you're whittling

I had some rolls out today, moving knives around. This thread seemed appropriate for this picture of my "number one" schrade roll of cuts and walden's. All bones in this except for my favorite pearl. The chain jack was in here but I moved it to my "number two" roll of pre delrin's. A third roll is needed.

The collection has come a long ways since I started with old schrades. I'm very grateful to have these fine pieces of history.
