Hi Aussie, You learn something new everyday, at least on this site..
I thought the matchstrike was just to fancy the pull up a bit.
Still got a couple of tins of wax matches but haven't tried them on a knife.
We used them a lot in the 60's.

Just got this in the mail, Schrade USA 5UH.
I like the handles a lot.

Gary.

Here's another beautiful Schrade.

SCHRADE 7OT. With papers and sheath.

You'd want to eat your greens to carry this
on your hip all day.

My Old Timer collection is slowly growing on the small and medium end. Recently found the 108OT (bottom) in a knick-knack store while searching for my wife's birthday gift, the 33OT was won on e-bay and came in yesterday's mail (just love jack knives); they join the Ulster "Prince Albert" 58OT shown in the middle.

Probably an early to mid 1950's Schrade Walden







Blades a little roughed up but the reddish peachseed handles are nice ones.

That is a beauty Hal!

Over the last couple of weeks I've picked up these knives.

Whoa bullocks whoa!!!!
SCHRADE CW1 Covered Wagon.
Makes you think of youthfull days, "" the good old days "" they called them.
They were only good because you didn't know any different. Still.
Like these ones.

Hi all, got another from last year.
Beautiful Schrade NY. USA. 863.
Just love those bone handles.



Gary.

Another one in the bag.
Schrade USA. 708.
Just a little one, but still a Schrade.


Gary.

Pic looks shocking, will do one in daylight.


Gary.

I picked this one up off ebay. A real Schrade classic, a 163 pattern rope knife. No hint of elegance about this thing, just pure work knife.

Gary - I like these little Schrades. Try turning the flash off on your camera and take pictures outdoors on a neutral backround. I do best when I am out early in the morning or late afternoon on the shady side of the house.

Hi all, Thanks for your comment thawk, I've got a lightbox now to ' improve " my pic's.
I tried all angles before, but for sure wasn't doing it right.
Just need a lot of practice.
This one's a SCHRADE+ USA. LTD.

Schrade Walden Craftsman 9542 (881Y)

Keith

Nice looking Schrades guys! I like that yellow Craftsman Keith, looks really heavy duty! Here is a great old 1983 Schrade 2941 Heritage Trapper...Hard to tell from the pics but it is brown bone, it is more visible in the second pic... pretty slick. High quality knife, great user, been getting lots of compliments on it. Was able to score it for under $10, as it is not in perfect condition, but I like to put my knives to work, so it is perfect for my purposes, good snap and no wobble. My first bone handled Schrade.
Mike

Thats a good looking knife Mike smooth

Got this one after a price war with a dozen other bidders.
Schrade Walden NY. USA. 804 Whittler.
I like it.


Gary.

Nice one Gary!
It is hard to beat that peach seed bone!

Sweet knife Gary! Those handles, ringed bolsters and shield just does it right!

I picked up this little 108 OT yesterday along with a couple of other dollar specials. I allready have this model, but the knife is in new condition. With the box and all papers included, it was worth spending the $10.00 . Dale H.

This one's my lastest one, old stainless fishing & hunting knife
from GEO. SCHRADE KNIFE CO.INC.BPT.CONN.
It's in good condition.
Good snap, been sharpened,and has good edge.
Has a slide on top to lock blade in open position.

Gary.

Had this for awhile now, just getting time to take a few
pic's and post.

SCHRADE USA. 206
As new, no box/papers.
