This knife is has a tang stamp the simply says Schrade + USA with no model number. It is the same size and shape as the 94OT and has ivory Delrin scales. No scrimshaw on either side. I would like to get any info I can on it, dating, model number, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My opinion when I see these is that they were probably sold for "Your Name Here" type items; that promotional companies would buy, and then offer to print/engrave things on them, usually company logos/advertising. I had an SC505 that had mini-catalogs for two years (it's in an SC-506 Barlow box, and the original owner must have had a mix-up over the years) inside it, and neither lists anything like a 94OT in them. But I know one exists.

I did some searching, and it brought me to an old, ended store listing here. One with a Gator on it was listed as being a 584SC.

I only have one trapper scrimshaw. It has the tang stamp with the numbers 296Y.
I have not seen many trapper scrimshaws
Here one on ebay with your tang stamp

Thanks for the info gentlemen. I had thought that it might have been made as part of the scrimshaw series but never got scrimshawed.

Actually has "LTD" in the stamp , so that was a limited run .
I've got two large stockman on the same frame as the 8ot . Both have plain white Delrin with no shield . One is stamped 505SC which is supposed to be scrimshawed and isn't and the other is stamped 881 which was an open stock Schrade , but those were usually a brown jigged Delrin with a national shield while they also made them in yellow Delrin with the national shield some of them stamped 881Y and others just plain 881 . In either case , I've got a scrimshaw with no scrimshaw and an 881 without the shield and in white Delrin . (881W) ? No shield . Who knows what's was going on there ?

So I'm guessing that, as far as dating, these knives with the ambiguous tang stamps were made in the last few years before their doors closed?
