Desert Golfer wrote: ↑Thu Nov 18, 2021 9:43 am Mr. Kennedy- Here is my Knife thats the same as yours except that mine is a 2880 Winchester. Both of our knives were contract knives made by Schrade Cut Co. I wonder if Schrade made this model for any other Companies besides Winchester and Shapleigh?

Yes, I had a Bingham in the same pattern at one time.

This arrived yesterday afternoon. It is a SHAPLEIGH HARDWARE CO., DIAMOND EDGE fob, with a leather strap. It measures 5 1/8" long, including the strap. The fob itself measures 1 1/4" x 2" The manufacturer stamp is WHITEHEAD-HOAG - NEWARK, N.J. It is in VERY GOOD condition and didn't need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Thank you, Joe.
That is or was a nice fob that you posted.

This arrived very recently. It is another SHAPLEIGH HARDWARE CO., DIAMOND EDGE fob, with a leather strap. It measures 5" long, including the strap. The fob itself measures 1 1/4" x 2" The manufacturer stamp is WHITEHEAD-HOAG - NEWARK, N.J. This one is slightly different than the SHAPLEIGH fob that I previously posted under this topic or thread. It is in VERY GOOD condition and didn't need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Thank you, Tom.
You're welcome, Tom.

Mailman just today brought me this Shapleigh Hardware B608 Trapper Knife with Peach Seed Bone Handles. I think it`s a Contract Knife made by Schrade Cut Co. for Shapleigh. Full Blades, Great snap, Great Patina. I think it`s a Keeper.

Yes, that is a keeper for sure, Desert Golfer.
That is a good looking knife all the way around.
Thanks for enlightening this thread with that beauty.

All My Shapleigh Knives.

A beautiful foursome, Desert Golfer.

Love that big equal end moose!

Your posting some very fine knives Desert Golfer!!

Schrade Cut sure made some beautiful Knives for Shapleigh Hdw., didnt they. Thank You for the nice comments men. I`m proud to own and show these knives. Mike

Just got this one from Sanders, pleased as always.
I guess it’s a spatula but is really more like a butter knife. I bought it for the etch. It’s made in Germany and is
3 13/16” closed. It does have a knife edge.
Any ideas?
Thanks kerry

Nice knife, Kerry, and nice etch!
Is it all steel or all stainless steel? How long is the knife and the blade?
I assume there is just one blade.

Thanks. One blade 6 13/16” overall length.
Probably not stainless as a magnet sticks hard to case and blade. Also nothing stamped on the knife denoting stainless.
Thanks, kerry
