Well further proof recently came my way to show me the Lord does watch over children & fools.
(I'm a few light years passed 21 if you're wondering which category I'm in)

Way back in the 80s my ex found a Schrade 708 in her employer's parking lot .
It had already been run over maybe more than once.
Shield scratched up & missing a bolster.
Clip blade barely tipped, pen blade a little hard to open with the bent liner.
But other than those few detriments the knife was MiNT!

Sometime around Jan.'07 I began to notice the 708's absence.
Spent a little time looking for it w/o success.
I bought a 708B replacement but it just didn't feel the same as the busted up orphan.
As different as a brand new pair of Levis vs a pair you have nicely broken in.

Recently I won an older 708 w/the same long pull & Schrade shield as my missing 708.
Even has a slightly tipped clip like the lost one.
Newest one cleaned up well, resharpened and lubed looks like we have a weiner.
Still have some clip blade reshaping to do.
One weird coincidence is that from seller's return address she has same name as the Ex!

First one, now m.i.a.

Congrats,on finding your, ""old pal""" Wosey __________have a great day,Monk

[FRJ]

Nice knife and nice pictures, Wosey.

[woseyjales]

Thank ye fellers,
I didn't notice the red mark on the back liner until I uploaded the pic.
Koduck digimatic has a lot better vision than I do, that's fer sure.
Pic shows all of it, doesn't extend any further.

Anyone know if that red mark has any significance from the factory?
Or just a mark to let them know the end of their roll of brass stock
is fast approaching?

[FRJ]

I would say your last assertion would be a proper assumption.

Here's a Schrade Walden 233 & 974 I recently purchased.
