Something special for the 8OT bone handle lovers.

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.

Something special for the 8OT bone handle lovers.

Post by orvet »

I made this knife for the OKCA (Oregon Knife Collectors Association) show, last weekend.
I was putting it out when a Charley wondered over and admired it, asked how much, then bought it.
I had not even priced it yet.

I thought it was pretty and thought you might enjoy the pics as I only posted it in the Customized Factory Knife forum.

I think I will do a 34OT next in the peachseed bone, as soon as I get orders in the shop caught up.

Thanks Eric, I did feel pretty good about that.
Charlie said my work had improved, and that I was not charging enough. :lol:



Thanks Rob, I still learn something with every knife I do.
As long as I am learning I can get better. ::nod::

Very cool, a OT was the first knife I remember ever having.
