All About Pocket Knives

Nice bunch of knives there, dogg.

Got this one recently at a flea market for $10.
Factory edge, centered blade and never used I think.
This is a well made knife and it's an advertiser knife no less.
Has the nicest walk/talk. I'm lovin it.
With an 80T for size comparison

Harold it is interesting that the 175 was made in 2 different sizes.
It was 3-3/8" when it was made by Schrade Cut Co. It was carried over into Schrade Walden also at 3-3/8".
In 1964 the catalog notes the change in size and the knife is listed as 3-3/4" from then on.

I have only acquired the trapper and muskrat in the green bone...both unfinished...no shield or serial #. If you ever think about selling your set... well I, sure you won't... but if you do..

Thanks Dale I didn't know that.
This one is the 3-3/4"

I think I have both sizes of the 175. I will try & remember grab a picture and post it.

Those sheep hoof knives are mighty handy, the original box cutter, of course. The latest rage is the pointy version, and calling them wharncliffes. Here is a catalog cut of a similar animal, called the New England Whaler, pre-1946 style, and a later Schrade Walden, with TWO blades.

Just got this one today

This has been here for a few months. I has some peppering on the blades but looks unsharpened.

Oh man! That two bladed New England Whaler! It's like a loom fixer! another one to look for. It never ends.

Nice 36OT
One of the harder to find Old Timers.

Thanks for the kind words Grant. And I learned something.

This 227UH arrived in yesterday's mail. Herman Williams re-jigged the 100 year Anniversary rope jigged blue bone with the jigging machine built in Schrade's machine shop. He bought 12 sets of these handles. It may not be a one of a kind, but it is the first.

I like the blue handles.
The only one I have with blue handles is a Schrade 4" stockman .

I only know of Blue bone being used on this Special Edition set and the 100th Anniversary knives

I have the same Blue set in the Display, I would say the Flag in the center was never put in-place.
I have tried to find one to complete the Display.
I also have all five knives, with-out the Display Unit.

I also have some of the un-finished 100th Anniversary knives.
My ACB80 is one of the very hard to find, finished rope-cut bone knives.... Ken

Just finished paying for a Schrade LTD 3-3/8" Jack on eBay. Looks to have black saw cut Delrin® handles, brass bolsters and a brass shield imprinted with "Schrade"

Anyone have any information on this knife?

I've had 6 of the 3rd Generation Schrades for some time, and finally found number 7, a perfect C641 lockback, right here on AAPK. It is a beauty!

Just added this Sears version of a 25 OT to go with a 165

Whoa Pro nice pair

Thanks Dogg. ^^^^
Stumbled across the 25. Got lucky.

It was a good week...this is what today's mail brought
