Lee - you are correct, there are a lot of similarities between the two knives, did not mean to sound however I sounded?

Pretty sure the hard-to-read curved tang stamp from UTICA is pre 1960

Imperial 1930-1936 making this FISH KNIFE at least 80 years old, possibly 86.....and she's as tight as the day she left the factory with the same wicked snap!

That Imperial is about like the first knife Daddy got me,I was 4 or 5, and a bigger boy begged me out of it. Welcome to the world Lyle.
Dimitri is that Schrade faded or did they make a lighter french ivory?

Hi Lyle, the knife appears unused to me never sharpened the color looks pretty consistent with what I have seen.
Do you have a knife from Schrade that is darker?

It must be just the lighting in the picture. Mine seem more yellow.

How about a Dunlap (Sears).
And an Imperial Scout (1946-1956)
Here are four pre-1960 Schrades -- 1937, 1948, 1953 and 1958
This Schatt & Morgan has been around since the early 20th Century.
I'll quit for now with a Syracuse Knife Company EZ-Open 1935-1940

Super looking knives JohnR and Jerry
JohnR - Your pile of jacks is awesome - each and everyone - nice wood and jigged bone

... I can't quite make out the maker stamps - what have we here??

I think I am seeing a nice Challenge Cut Co jack on bottom if I am not mistaken....

Thank you, you are right, it is a Challenge, going clockwise, a Lawton, 1900 or so, an Electric, a New York Knife Co, Cattaraugus and a Dwight Devine Ulster.

As far as I know. Kind of hard to tell when there's no documentation on them.
I have 1937, 1948, 1953, 1958, 1963, 1968, 1973, 1978, 1983 and 1988.
Makes a real nice historical progression for Schrade tang stamps.
