All About Pocket Knives

Has anyone ever seen a Schrade auto with an etch blade with "BSA logo, Boy Scouts of America"? A few years ago one popped up on ebay, wasn't there long and came down quickly. Beautiful knife. Have never seen one before or since. Searched everywhere for a reference to one and can't find. It was a swing guard and absolutely mint. A real mystery.

Yes , there is a boy and girls scout automatic knife made by Schrade…. However, I’ve never seen a swinguard version.

My memory is maybe not so good, maybe not a swing guard.

If you google it you can find posts and pics and references to it (boy and girl scout, with a mention that it may have been official girl scout for a year -- which makes me laugh... "hey you, buy the cookies! - click" )

seems I was too slow, dang guys ! Nice job.

Thanks everyone for all the info. My internet searches obviously were not very good.

Switch blades from some of the companies were originally advertised as being friendly to ladies' fingernails.

Yep , they made an official boy and Girl Scout model .
