All About Pocket Knives

Here's a little something I aquired a few days ago
Supposedly from the Bill Moran estate sale.
Evenly so, it's a Shrade Walden NY

The emblem says; Master Technitian Conference

I can't get a decent pic. of this little fellow for nothing
It is in extremely good condition

Nice. The pattern goes back to the Schrade Cutlery (tang stamp) days. Looks like 'marine pearl' from your photo. Chrysler had a long relationship with Schrade. Most of the knives I have seen with 'Master Tech' shields came from the seventies and eighties. I have a letter from the previous owner of one of mine who stated he recieved the knife in 1987.

Thanks for showing this. Goes to illustrate that anything displayed here can add a nugget of knowledge that is important to someone else.

Thanks
What year did they stop using Walden on thier stamp?

They stopped using "Walden" on their stamp in 1973. So the knife should date between 1946 - 1973, if I am reading it correctly.

Here is one of mine:

Thanks for showing these.

Now I have a problem. To me it looks like one is a cell handle and the last one looks like a shell handle?

I am always wrong so tell me PLEASE!

The one I have is celluloid, simulated Goldlip, MOP, extremely nice piece of plastic on this one though I got a new camera and it ain't co-operating with me

e3ck: Try turning off the flash and use macro mode in a bright lit room- that usually cuts down on the glare/washed out color quit a bit. Also try taking the pic at different angles.
