Schrade Mystery Running Deer-5ot

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.

I recently purchased a beautifully handled and finished NAHC, Schrade 5ot, from Herman Williams, and i am trying to get some information as to the history of it. Any help from you very knowledgeable gentleman, would be greatly appreciated. The pics are as under.

Beautiful knives Tony, as are all the Herman Williams knives I've seen. I know nothing about Schrade knives but I do know, for future reference and your convenience, you can add up to ten pictures per post. Try it next time. ::woot::

Tony, the blade etch looks the same as a run of knives that were done for Gander Mountain, although I'm not sure what shield was used on their knives. Those were originally done in natural stag if I remember correctly. Beautiful knife!!
