Advertising Knives

[Gunsil]

I always like etched or engraved pearl handle knives, this one has different whiskeys advertised on each side and the same ones etched on the blades. Dang these Iphone pics make me nuts, gotta get a plain camera for this.

Gene, download a free copy of PhotoScape, learn how to use it and adjust your pictures.

[Gunsil]

Thanks Jerry. When I load photos into my computer from either camera or iphone they are always properly aligned. When I upload them to this site from my computer the ones from the camera stay properly aligned but the ones from the iphone get skewed. Sometimes the iphone photos are skewed but when enlarged get straight and sometimes they are loaded straight and get skewed on enlargement. This does not happen on another forum. Doesn't bother me that much and I don't like other services when I can load properly on other sites. I also know that it makes you and a few others nuts, some folks don't seem to care, they can see the details well enough.

Sure like looking at the advertising Knives - Jerry I noticed your Cadillac Craftsman reminded me of this little Cadillac Craftsman 708 - I really like the shield -- Clint

I like that little Cadillac! Nice to see it going back to Schrades in the Schrade forum!

[jerryd6818]

Clint, I like that one a lot. I'll have to start looking for one.

...This green LB1 for Publix just showed up today. Who else has some advertising knives to share?...

I think that's the 1st green delrin LB-1 I've ever seen. Nice!

Most of my knives with text etc on them are anniversary commemoratives. I don't have any that are advertising knives with a phone number etc. The closest are likely my 3 Schrade "Compliments" knives.

This Schrade Cut Co pen knife pattern was often used for advertising knives.
And this Schrade Walden 865 lobster pattern was used for the Chrysler Master Technician Conference "Leader 4 Years" award. I have a bunch of these. All say "4" years.

Here is my most 'revealing' one, for "GE Progress Computer"; Correction, it is "Process Computer"
Why is this so amazing ? Because it is a Schrade Walden 876. The 'youngest' this could be is from 1971. I graduated from medical school in 1972. There were no computers anywhere, not even in universities. It was not until early 1990's that the computer invasion really got going.
This might be one of the earliest knives with computer advertising.

Roland, it says "PROCESS COMPUTER."

[kootenay joe]

Thanks Skip. I will change it. Wonder what "Process" meant here ?

My favorite.

I can see why!

We're seeing a lot of great knives here so far. Here's a pair of 2204s - when you're handing these out to customers, you have arrived.

Zowee man Fred. Now that right there is high cotton.

[Meridian_Mike]

Oh... yes, I have one of those...

(Thanks Cal!)

[tnorton]

I should have bought lumber at SHAMBURGER LBR. CO. INC. - all very nice high quality advertisement

[jxr1197]

LOL - thanks, that one made me laugh!


BC - I never landed one of the Complements knives but if I'm remembering right I read somewhere that those were given to dealers who ordered enough knives or sold enough knives, something like that.


Cal I remembered that I have one of those TINGULOKs still in the plastic!

I don't tend to pick up too many advertising knives; however, picked this one up recently. Due to it being an advertising knife and blades with some early rusting, I was able to pick it up at a good discount. I thought I would replace the handles...but I'm liking the red bone and besides...resetting the Texas and star shields would be a pain in the asphalt. Cleaned up the blades and will put it in to the edc rotation..

[tongueriver]

Doc, that is a cool knife and my TX friends would really like it as well, but this is a Schrade forum.
