SCHRADE, PAT APD FOR, single blade, jack pocket knife. I didn't have to do a thing to it. It's in fantastic condition. These are MY pictures.Nice find!
You have an awesome mailman!
It appears to be the Queen logo. The "Q" with the crown above it. Like the tang stamp.

Nice set of knives Scale Military! That Gerber is sweeeeet!Scale Military wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 4:00 am I have a few new knives to report.
Ordered the 3 Colonial's from Colonial.
The 1 Gerber, I picked up from our Canadian tire. Funny thing about it, it was the display model and was made a while ago, so they lost the box for it.
In my Army days 91-93, just about everybody in my company with an EDC had either a Gerber or a Leatherman. They were very "in" I guess you would say. I had a nice Gerber back then but a few years latter I loaned it to a guy at work on a construction site who left it laying around & forgot it when we went home that day. Needless to say, it was gone the next day. 
Too many adjectives to describe that knife so, just gorgeous!QTCut5 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:58 pm Got this Amherst Stag Swayback recently. I wasn't familiar with the brand but decided to take a chance because I liked the stag (and the Wharncliffe blade, too, of course). Turns out it's even better than I expected. Exceptional F&F and has the feel and action of a custom handmade knife. Nice and slender, too (shown beside my recently acquired Italian Viper Swayback for width comparison).
Thanks TPK! Yeah the knife is sweet! Grippy handle that is good is your hand is wet. Haven't tested how the steel will hold it's edge yet, though it could use a honing of the edge. 1 thing though with my colonial fixed blade is that the sheath snap broke on the sheath that holds the handle. Guess they didn't pound the snap good enough. Now I'll have to make a new sheath for it or get a kydex one made......TPK wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 8:14 amNice set of knives Scale Military!

Just need a polishin and your good to go! That is a beautiful knife, I would love to have one. Do you mind if I ask where you got it?QTCut5 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:58 pm Got this Amherst Stag Swayback recently.

Very nice knives Jerry.jerryd6818 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 4:42 pm These came yesterday. Too dark for pictures by the time they got here. As you can see, the Utica TL-29 is used but not abused and the price was commiserate with the condition so I'm pleased with it. It's a place holder for one with the metal TL-29 shield.
I have a couple of their knives Q and find them very quality knives. One is in Mammoth. Lot of controversy about them. Some say made in Ohio, others say China, some made in China and assembled in Ohio. Regardless great knives and that one is just exceptional. Love both the blade and the handles. Excellent and congratulations.QTCut5 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:58 pm Got this Amherst Stag Swayback recently.

. And yes, me bro's gerber is quite a nice knife for sure. Gerber knives overall (especially Bear Grylls series), are excellent knives. Especially the Portland OR made ones. .
