D-E

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.

Thanks for the comments on the D-E. When did Schrade start the Peach Seed bone?
How old do you think this knife is?

Schrade Cutco was certainly using this pattern of jigging right after WWII and POSSIBLY before WWII. The last of it was seen maybe about 1957 or thereabouts. I think a little earlier. I think that this Diamond Edge dates to say.... 1953 to say.... 1955. That is a GUESS.

Both blades stamped put it into the early Schrade Walden years (1947 to 1953), or even Cut Co vintage.
