SCHRADE LTD- Let's see some

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.

Not sure what you mean by IBCA ::shrug:: Can you help me out?

Tom

EDIT: The paperwork I have are: The Commemorative Knife Registration form/Lifetime Warranty and a brochure about Will Rogers, The Commemorative Knife and on the reverse it lists important dates in the Life of Will Rogers from birth 1897 - His final Burial in Oklahoma 1944.

I have Serial # 12318

Hope that helps

IBCA -International Blade Collectors Association
I posted one toward the top of this page.

Thanks for the offer on the Will Rogers paperwork, but mine has both pieces.
BTW, my serial # is 06883.

Here is a Grandad's Barlow.
I think they came out in the 1980s.

Dale,

That Barlow is a nice piece and I'm glad you brought that one up because it prompted me to pull mine out. I actually thought I had several of them (Barlows), however when I started pulling them out I realized that what I actually have is:

1: Grand Dad's Sharp Finger LTD
2: Grand Dad's Old Timer LTD
3: Grand Dad's Old Timer II LTD
4: Grand Dad's Old Timer Barlow LTD
::ds:: ::ds:: ::ds::
My inventory listing is not as complete as I wish it were (they were listed as Old Grand Dad's) ::dang:: . I also haven't gotten to properly displaying them yet, I have them all packed and boxed up. :roll:

I really have to get some displays done up this spring.

I'll shoot some pictures tomorrow during the daylight hours and post them.

Thanks Dale.

Tom

As promised...here are the pictures. I ended up taking them inside, it's in the teens and breezy here and I couldn't hold the camera still outside. Not the greatest pictures but you'll get the general picture.

1: Grand Dad's Sharp Finger LTD
2: Grand Dad's Old Timer LTD
3: Grand Dad's Old Timer II LTD
4: Grand Dad's Old Timer Barlow LTD

These are going to make an excellent display together after they have been wiped down and put into a shadow box. ::nod::

The blade has a spray on protectorant that was applied at the factory way back when and I did not clean it off.

In any event..........this one's for you Dale ::tu::

Alright.......alright.....

This one is not an LTD or Special Edition, however it is very "SPECIAL" to me! ::nod::

This Sharpfinger was made by my Dad........it sports a filed, highly polished 152 blade and genuine stag handles. It sure is a beauty ::drool::

I hope you enjoy.

Beautiful Sharpfingers...................... ::tu::

Finger grooves are great, but I gotto tell you.........I'm a sucker for the wooden handles.

Might be another good thread.........wooden handled knives :roll: :lol:

Glad to see you tracked down one of the Old Grand Dad's ::nod::

Sorry to hear that Dale!

4-6 Months...........Sounds like alot of time to research and spend on the computer!

Anything I can do to help, just let me know. I have been on your site several times justing looking and hoping to catch that one knife that I want. Problem is.........I don't know what that is yet, but I'll know when I see it.

I am impressed with your work and although I am a Schrade Factory knife person........I will add some custom Schrade pieces.

Thanks again Dale for all that you do for the folks on this forum. ::tu:: ::nod::

I only came home with one Schrade LTD from the OKCA show here in Oregon last weekend.

This one is courtesy of upnorth, ie., Charlie.
It has a beautiful blade etch & shield. Pretty nice bone as well.

Thanks Charlie,
