Schrade Walden 8175

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.

That is a beautiful knife! ::tu::

Walden Knife Co; 1874-1923 per Goins.
There is a lot of rich history in that company.
Check out this thread on Walden Knife Co.
At one time they were the largest knife company in the world, employing over 600 workers.
