A CUT. CO. AND A UTICA

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.

A CUT. CO. AND A UTICA

Post by dweb1897 »

I recently acquired the knife on the left.....the one on the right belongs to Schradenut in Australia. I'd hate to figure the odds of the two knives from the same Lumber company ending up with two friends that live halfway around the world from each other. Gotta say, Schamburger sure had good taste in knives.

That must have been a real surprise to say the least. Credit to you guys for having good taste in knives too.

Thanks Joe, I wish I'd had a boss that gave out knives like that.

It is interesting to see a Utica blade in a Schrade frame, even with SCHRADE stamped on the bottom bolster.
Both nice knives, no matter the name on the blade. ::tu::
