ULSTER Jr. Cattleman ??

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.

From what I can see they gave you a fine old knife. A cattle knife. How long is it?

What a nice gift !

Ulster turned out some excellent cutlery during the era in which that knife was produced. ::tu::

Ulster Knife Co = when owned by Dwight Devine, i.e. before 1941, and it looks mint. Absolute top notch collectible knife. Your family either knows knives or received some excellent advice.

Superb example of late 1930s junior cattle knife. I know you would not sell it, but think "more than $150." Perhaps your 6-year-old will be fondling it as an old man. ::tu::

My local knife shop doesn't seem to carry anything like that! ::tu::

Very nice old cattle knife. ::tu:: ::tu:: Looks to be in great condition. Like the long pull. Do the secondary blades also have long pull?

It is a Cattle knife. 3 1/2" or less is a Junior Cattle knife, 3 5/8" or larger is a Cattle knife.
Above it has been given a value of 'more than $150'. I agree and think $250 might be closer to market value. It is an exceptional knife & Cattle knives are very collectible.

Nice Cattle knife. Also I'm thinking it might be one issued to Army Air Corp. around WW2. More to the story Sears
purchased the left overs and sold them in their stores. Hope I'm thinking right.

Very nice knife. I have a couple, they are great to tote.

Your local knife shop must be pretty good with ones like that. I'd never find anything that good 'round these parts.

I believe those WWII examples will be found to have steel bolsters and liners. Additionally, the op knife has pre-1941 tang stamp.

Thanks, I was not for sure on what I posted, figured if I was wrong someone would let me know.
