Imperial fish knife query

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.

Imperial fish knife query

Post by Robbie K »

Hi from Down Under... I have just aquired an Imperial fish knife in pretty good condition. It has scales of very tight grained timber, which I suspect has been cut from a burl. It does not have bolsters. Can anyone tell me whether this would have been a factory option, or has it been re modelled. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome here, Robbie K.

There are folks here who can answer your questions but you will have to show some clear pictures of the knife
so they can respond.
