My latest Schrade

Schrade Cutlery Company was founded in 1904 by George Schrade, and his brothers Jacob and William Schrade. In 1946 Imperial Knife Associated Companies, (IKAC; an association of Ulster Knife Co and Imperial Knife Co) purchased controlling interest in Schrade Cut Co and changed the name to Schrade Walden Cutlery. In 1973 the name was changed to Schrade Cutlery. In 2004 Schrade closed due to bankruptcy.

This forum is dedicated to the knives that are the legacy of this company. This forum is not the place to discuss the replica knives currently being imported using the Schrade name.

Papa Bones wrote: Thu May 12, 2022 10:13 pm Added another addition to my Steelies and G.Schrade family, A Stainless Steel hawk bill pruning knife. It is 3-1/8" closed not including the eyelet. The tang stamp is G.SCHRADE KNIFE CO. INC over B'PORT.CT.USA over STAINLESS. The blade has an etch with SUPERTEX RIBBON CO. over DON O'CONNEL. The body of the frame is stamped in script with "Say It With Flowers"underlined over STAINLESS STEEL. I'm figuring it was a promotional give-a-way knife. The knife is like new, great snap, doesn't appear to have been re-sharpend, and just has a few spots on the blade. The blade is high polished and the body is a brushed finish. Not sure of the age of this one. The only thing I could find on Supertex Ribbon Co. was in New York City & was established in 1955, then around 1971 was re-established as SuperTex Textiles Inc. which was dissolved in 1993. Here are some pictures, all this knife needed was to oil the joints.

Nice one! I have not seen that pattern before. Looks like a baby version of the "Hunting and Fishing Knife" frame.

Nice little Flea market score today. A Schrade Walden 804 Whittler. Just like I like them. Used but not abused. Delrin is in really good shape, blades have a lot of life left in them, and it's not too pretty to carry! Price was right too. Patina on the blades, but not rusty. I'll take all like this I can get. Cleaned it a bit, a little oil, and right into my pocket it went!

A great carrying knife. Some had sabre-ground masters and some didn't. They made them for Craftsman, too.

I have a Craftsman that had a broken tip, so I turned it into a Wharncliff. It's a wonderful "user" too!

I just picked up this 225H, ::hmm:: I am having a little trouble dating it. My collector's guide is from the 1980's and I don't see this model # in there. Any ideas?

1960/62 (when they adopted Delrin as covers) to the summer of 1973 (when they changed tang stamps).

Here is something you might find useful.

There is the "225" and the "225H". Supposedly the "H" refers to the lanyard hole in the rear bolster but i have seen 225H without the hole.

Yes, the hunters with and without holes are all over the place. Schrade was not too fussy in these matters. The ones without holes sometimes have holes in the liners anyway.

It has the serrated blade and bale on the handle.

Here are 3 Schrade Walden stamped knives that were obtained in the last week or so:
008.JPG
The yellow knife is a 196 Florist knife with a shackle.
The small jack is a 33OT, unsharpened. :)
The old warrior is an 881, missing the shield still plenty of meat on the used blades.
