Schrade Walden -- Maher & Grosh

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.

Schrade Walden -- Maher & Grosh

Post by hawk »

Just pickd up a Schrade Walden 225H Folding Hunter that has
Maher & Grosh marke on the second blade, I was just wonderening
when these knives had that marking.
I have collected knives a long time and new about Maher & Grosh knives,
but have not seen a Schrade marked with that mark, but I am not
a Schrade collector.

thanks
Don

That tang stamp was used on that pattern from 1957 until 1973. Maher & Grosh could have ordered a batch any time within that frame.

That is about what I was thinking, but not being a Schrade collector and have
not seen that marking on one , I just wanted some other thoughts. The knife is
sure in good condition, not mint but ral nice
