I was looking around at some pics of the 225H on the net. I saw a picture of a 225 (which I suppose came before the 225H)
A few threads mentioned a 225 with bone covers. The below pics (borrowed from the net) may be one....
It does appear to have bone covers. The 225 is on the pile side tang.

NOW.... I found a 2104 3/8 M that had some crappy covers on it.

I put some kyranite on it for a restoration.....

Then.... I see in some of the catalogs, a reference to a Schrade 225/WSH.....(????)
What the heck is a 225/WSH????

I have a Schrade 25 OT

And an Uncle Henry 227

Anyway.....
Let's see some Schrade 225 variants.

Mine is also a 225H, but is stamped on the mark side of the blade. Mine is the Asten Felts version with the round shield and Delrin handles.

Here's a Sabre Monrach version from the '60's. It's got the unusual American Knife Company front tang stamp:

This one's an Olsen 119 I believe from the early seventies. Same covers as the Monarchs:

Stretching the definition of variant a little, but how about a single blade 115?

How about a 125OT with a liner lock?

I love what you did with that rehandle job. ::tu:: ::tu::

Hmmmmmmmmm..... I don't recon I have ever seen a 115.....

It almost looks like it is missing the main clip blade...... COOL.

That single blade hunter is the first I have seen. The folding hunters were one of my favorites to collect and still are. I presently seem to own 50 Schrades and 4 Schrade CutCos in that pattern. There are a few duplicates, but not many. Herman Williams customized two or three for me. I received an email from an esteemed collector friend of mine early this week: Herman Williams has passed away.
