Schrade with no tang stamp

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.

Schrade with no tang stamp

Post by orvet »

I got this knife a couple years ago.
Though there is little doubt in my mind that it is a product of the Schrade factory., I just have been unable to determine what it was supposed to be.
It looks like a 194OT, is 3-7/8", but has no liner lock like the 194OT.
Searching my list I do not find a 3-7/8" single blade without a liner lock.
I am tired tonight & may have missed it, but I don't see any Open Stock pattern corresponding to this knife.

When Eric posted the info about Sabre Monarch & Olson, that reminded me of this knife so I though I would post it. It looks like that Sabre Monarch 201.
Anyone have an idea what this was made to be?


Thanks,
Dale

Schrade did not even do a single blade open stock like that with the liner lock and jigged delrin handles. At least not standard production. It's a 293 or 294 frame with a single liner. It's no stamp, not a removed stamp. Another Schrade pocket knife that falls into the "It is what it is" category.
