77OT

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.

Very nice. I hardly ever pack a muskrat, but I’ve always liked them. That’s a gooder’un.

The 77 OT is one of my favorites also. But unlike the OP knife, mine is a second and has XX over the tangstamp.

That is a good-lookin' Muskrat! ::tu:: As for value, I couldn't say for sure. I paid $65 for a 61OT in about that condition last year, which could be an okay baseline for establishing the value of your Muskrat.

Just received this in a trade. The best part is the blade etch. My favorite store as a kid. Oh the memories of wandering the streets with my Gramps.

Great looking muskrat. I don't carry one often, but when I do, I appreciate the fact that no matter how the knife is oriented in my hand when I take it out of my pocket, I have a blade ready to be opened.

That is a great way to look at muskrats!
VERY useful and handy knives!
