An early Schrade folder

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.

That's just a fine, fine knife! Wonder how a knife that old stays so pristine for many, many years like it has!? OH

Thanks so much, guys.
OH, it's a blessing that some of these old tools are little used and still intact.
These days they're sought after for a much different purpose. Something their creators would have never considered.
