Re: Schrade scrimshaw ?

These are from my photo files and not mine. But I do have the Stallion knife in just the box.
The other scrimshaw LB1 knives are tang stamped SC511. Curious why this one is different?

Re: Schrade 61OT unusual shield

Good stuff. I have a digital collection of knives I don't own or no longer own, as well. I do still have this one. rb1.jpgrb7.jpgrb9.jpg That's a very nice set you have! I used to have a few of the red bone Heritage knives, but not any that have the shield we're talking about. And not a full set. J...

Very nice group shown; thanks! I neglected to post my usual disclaimer and mention that I don't own any of the knives I posted. They are just from hundreds of photo files I have saved on my laptop. Although, I did remember this one that I own after I posted the others. It appears to be an "unf...

Re: Schrade 61OT unusual shield

I agree that it looks like a replacement shield. Just so you know, those shields were used on the "Complimentary" knives handed out by Schrade to lucky individuals. And they were used on other limited editions, Like the Old Timer Classics. Below are some examples. I didn't find a 61OT Comp...

Re: Need help with a Schrade tang stamp

I count at least 4 different tang stamps for the 285UH. Not counting the limited editions with LTD or HERTAGE stamped on the tang. Or Craftsman knives. Of coarse they start with a small number of SCHRADE WALDEN stamps. Then in 1973 when the name changed, they went with just SCHRADE and variations th...

I have heard of the Lunker, but that's the first one I've seen. Thanks for posting it.

The stag on yours is done better than any of the ones I saw on ebay. Better that you got a sheath too.

Re: When was this made ?

This is what a genuine Schrade LB7 with stag looks like. This is a factory made knife that I bought back in '06 or '07. It's a LB7ES, as printed on the end of the box. I haven't seen hardly any of these. Much like the 5OT-ES factory stag knives. If you are thinking of getting that knife you are cons...

I couldn't find a knife like yours. There are many and most are smaller folding knives and a few fix...

The knife never went into any kind of production but it was really cool to see it. I ...

As close as you can get to those and the ones tongueriver mentioned is the LB2 Lil' Bear and the LB4. Both in very limited numbers. Then there are the 3rd Generation knives. But this is getting a little off track from your question. Footnotes are from the Schrade Reference Guide, found at the top of...

Re: SCHRADE LB7 4 PIN STAGLON?

I've always been confused by this picture which shows a 4 pin knife with an LB7 blade and paperwork. It's a little fuzzy, but the paperwork does say LB7. I always thought that would be a real nice rare collectable. I thought I'd throw this out there to mess with your heads some more. lol
