That is a really nice looking knife, I am going to have to get me one of those...Of course only for the sake of inspecting one up close
Thanks for sharing,

thanks sunburst. i "of course" only wanted to inspect. if this knife is indicative of their other offerings, you can't go wrong. i collect case but i like a little variety now and then. i have a queen/robeson mastercraft as well that is of very high quality.
ain't knives fun!

Johnnie,
That is a nice example of what the ex-Schrade folks can do.
You must have a good contact...or was that eBay? That is an excellent price.

bill, i lucked out found on ebay before all the hype. made a abid and won a week later. i was surprised i got it for that price.
i have had great schrade knives but these are the best quality i've seen. the handles are wonderful. blades are crinked perfectly.
imo it's better than case production knives.

Schrade could make some fine knives, especially in the Custom Shop.
Here is a bone handled stockman, no shield, from the shop...with a sheath by our own sheathmaker (Paul Long).
Anyway, nice knife Johnnie.

thanks bill, it's always fun to show a knife.
that is a nice stockman and kudos to paul long on the sheath.
as the new legend begins i hope to see a resurgence in american premiun folders. not just jewelery.

That's really a great looking knife! I've been seriously considering buying
either a Canal Street 3 1/4", 3-blade stockman OR a 4 1/8", 2-blade
trapper...I've been visiting their website for a couple weeks now, looking
at prices, specs, etc.
You seem to be quite satisfied with their craftsmanship, QC, etc...
(Comparable to Case??)
I own quite a few Case stockman patterns...and Schrade Old Timers and Uncle Henrys...but I'm wondering...If I were looking to expand my "collection" in a new direction...would you (based upon your recent acquisition) recommend Canal Street knives? Have you ever dealt with them directly?
Thanks for any input...

no direct contact, just the one on ebay.
i collect mainly case knives as well. this knife is on a par with older case knives in workmanship. the bone covers are superb. the fit and finish is excellent. the only drawback is the blade material,420. i would prefer cv.
the blades are sharp and crinked to not rub. so... based on my knife, i would definitly buy other canal patterns.
thanks for the interest and let me know if you aquire a canal street knife.

Hi;
I have talked to Mr. Gardiner and Mr. Hufnagel on the phone. They are no doubt very good businessmen. They are also very nice people, their
philosophy I believe is to make a success of CSC and stay in business for the betterment of the knife community. Bryan,If you read this I bet if you called them they would they would be willing if time was available to post some of their product info on this site. I currrently have two of their knives of which I have extolled the virtues before.
