It's Saturday Yard Work time .... What in your pocket?

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.

Normally whatever is in my pocket at the time, but when I plan ahead I use this 4" Old Cutler Texas Jack. Back on May 2nd I was tying to get my Weed & Feed out before the rain - cut the bag with the Case 6318 I had in my pocket. OH

Well, I see I put my pictures of non-Schrade knives in the Schrade Forum - sorry about that gents. Gotta watch that "Recent Conversation Topics" column on the AAPK home page - never know where you'll end up! OH

I have a dedicated "yard work" beater. My old beater (a Buck Odyssey) finally gave up the ghost when it's liner lock wouldn't engage anymore (this is after 8 years or so of scraping, cutting trimmer wire, trimming branches, mulch bags, etc) so my "new" dedicated yard knife is a Kershaw Rake (awesome knife)

That being said, when I'm just out putzing around the yard, and not doing anything that looks deliberately like work (you can tell because usually flip-flops and beer and involved) it's whatever happens to be in my pocket. This past week I snagged a pair of Parker-Schrade Bison's. One for my 4" stockman display, the other for my pocket. It was a tough choice, but the red bone bison went into the display (blades had less staining, better overall fit and finish) and the green bone (I'm partial to green :mrgreen: ) went into the pocket. It was in there Saturday, and it's in there today as well.

If you need any of those Schrade/Parkers I've got a few I'd get rid of.
