What is Your Latest Old Schrade?

[tongueriver]

So... Is this legitimate or a Taylor???

I believe you have a legitimate Schrade USA Straight Razor there! An excellent example at that! I remember reading about them some time ago and unfortunately, I have not been successful finding one myself. There is a member here that has one that is Gold etched and a beauty as well.

Definitely Taylor and I'd be happy to take it off your hands for a couple dollars

Kidding aside - that's a legit Schrade Cut Co 158-S, and good lawd look at the condition it's in! Even if it's had a little work done, it still has the etch showing! Blade, handle and bolsters are all correct. That's a helluva find. Congrats!

Here's mine:

Just in is this schrade cut co made shapleigh diamond edge 3 1/2'' stockman. Unfortunately the main has been tipped but it's a pretty good oldie other than that. A couple of small issues with the bone. Used very little and has the factory edges. The spey was still sharp enough to point a toothpick I was using to clean old dried glue out of the jigging. I am trying to get into the schrade made shapleigh DE's more heavily as I really like the branding.

That's a nice old knife Paul. And it looks as solid as a safe!

[tongueriver]

3 1/4 inches closed, half stops, hard snaps, good ebony and pretty dirty. Probably a 2252. By the 1926 catalog they had gone to a crescent nail pull, if this is indeed the same knife. The arched stamp means 1904 to maybe 1917, maybe 1920. I will clean this up just a little and carry it around a bit. It is obviously not a safe queen but fairly uncommon to see nowadays.

That is a keeper Cal!

I'll stick this Buffalo Cutlery Co. In here if nobody objects.Early Schrade peachseed bone and diamond shield.I have had a few Buffalo Cuts and all have been Schrade made and with a Diamond shield and most had a DE pattern#.I don't know if Buffalo had any connection to Diamond Edge or not,but they shared some history. This knife has some very faint remaining pattern # but is not readable.
