Re: Y'all got any MODIFIED Schrades (& Old Timers...)
Here's a few more Bowies, other than the last one, that Herman has done for me. All of them have file worked spines
171UH in dyed Sambar Stag 171UH in stabilized Burl Wood 171UH in Natural Elk Craftsman (161) in stabilized Maple Burl Schrade Bowie in Blue Camel Bone Schrade Bowie in White Bone Schrade Bowie in Rams Horn Schrade Bowie in Factory Torched Stag Schrade Bowie in Torched Elk Presentation Bowie done in the 80"s in Sambar Stag This is one that Herman presented to whoever had the best Schrade Collection at some particular show and is engraved BEST SCHRADE COLLECTION. He attended a knife show nearly every weekend during the knife show season, taking along his own collection to display which was mounted on panels. When put together these panels were around 4' high and over 30 feet long. During the show he would work on a knife and then present it to whoever had the best Schrade collection. Herman sold his collection to Schrade in the 90's. It was bought by Smokey Mountain Knife Works and Blue Ridge Cutlery as part of the factory collection at the 2004 bankruptcy. I've been told that they promised the entire collection would be displayed and not broken up. If they did indeed make that promise, it was a lie.

Hey..... Somebody that knows.....
Why are the pics that gmichael posted not visible to me?
Our stupid firewall here at work will not let me click on them and view them.
I know I missed some beautiful knives.

This is the only one I have, so far--------
Schrade 206 scrimshawed Barlow rehandled with money. It is a pen blank made from a clear acrylic and has shredded US currency in it.

Re: Y'all got any MODIFIED Schrades (& Old Timers...)
Doug, that link you posted to eBay is certainly a good-looking knife. A little out of my price range though. LOL
Here is some more of my early work January through April of 2008.
The knives listed from here on in this post or customized or restored after April 2008. Nothing is especially important about that date, just the way I filed my pictures. Knives customized from 2006 to April 2008 were all in one folder until I realized it was getting a bit large. In April 2008 I started cataloging my customize knife pictures by the year. The rest of the knives in this post were completed after April 2008.
I completed several 167UH blanks with various types of wood.
