Thank you doglegg

I picked up a decent unused but somewhat corroded 881 recently.

Great finds John & Paul!

Nice 881 Paul, congratulations

Added one of my favorites, a large 3 3/4" bare end sheepsfoot jack, so hard to find. This Cut Co has gorgeous pick bone.

I narrowed my scope about a year ago to Schrade cut co. knives. Good ones like the ones you have been showing are hard to find especially in the South where I live.

Even better looking than that 294. Wow. Great bones and shape. Congrats.

I live in oklahoma and have only ever seen one schrade cut locally and it was a lousy worn out knife. If not for ebay, the knife forums and the tulsa arms show I would not have a collection of old schrades at all.

Same here. If it wasn’t for eBay and AAPK members, I would never have the opportunity to see one, much less own one.

Very nice find John!

Not that old, but I got an SP-2 Raider from a member here really cheaply. Given how my 3OT is a little fiddly, I thought it would be somewhat too small, but it isn't. It's surprisingly easy to use.
With my Sears Craftsman 95228 (SP-3).

Question about this dot. Looks intentional. Accident/intentional from a former owner, or mark signifying second?

I plan to get the SP-7 next, despite being too big for my tastes. I don't really collect (mostly buy as users) these lightweight models, but I've got a small list of them I want to add: SP-3 Tennessee Vols (orange handle), serrated models, Harry Gant edition, as well as SP-22X, SP-32X with black blades. And of course plenty of plain black PE and SE bladed ones as users. Any unique SFO/promo colors I should look out for?

Nice knives. Here is another place to show them:

My latest oldie, 8424 3/4 senator whittler.

Yep, that's a good one, Paul.

I picked up these two at a gun show this last weekend. They are not old but "new unused" in their boxes. 127UH lock blade and a 125OT lock blade. Boxes are a little rough but the Old Timer still has the factory grease on it in the plastic wrapper. Both of course are USA made. Terry

Those Schrade folding hunters are big favorites with me; thanks for showing them! There is another thread here, 'your latest Schrade,' that may be a better fit.

Got another archie. This one goes with my bare-head version, both 3 1/4 inches, still snappy @ 100 years old plus.

Very nice.

Just a plain old 1973-1983 Schrade 834.
Takes and holds a great edge and is a beauty.
You just can’t beat a Schrade USA pocket knife.
