Schrade Pocket Watch

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.

Schrade Pocket Watch

Post by MikeB1953 »

Years ago when a Schrade dealer would place a large order, they were given a beautiful pocket watch that had Schrade's logo on it as a "Thank You". Wonder if anyone has seen one floating around or where I can buy/trade for one?

Thanks

Thanks,

I'm thinking not, but thanks for the work. The one I remember from years ago could have never sold for that much. Would have been a lot more. But i'm getting older and maybe......well, you know the rest.

Thanks again for the search.

I think that pocket watch was made for Taylor and was given with a set of three Camillus made Schrades.That's how I ended up with one.

OKee-DOAKee, that was the best I could do. No work involved, just came across it and remembered a post.

Mark,

I emailed a old salesman buddy of mine that had one. I think the last time he showed it to me was in 1995 or 1996. When he sends me a pic of it, I'll post it. It even had a Schrade "Gentlemans" knife on the other end of the fob.

I'll post it and hit you up.

Thanks.

I know this is not what you are looking for, but I hoped it would be okay to include it anyway. It was a "santa's workshop" tin with pocket watch and scrim knife. Cool little set, albeit not the same quality as the watch you mentioned. Sorry for the crappy pic.
