Schrade 25OT in Barbwire Canvas Micarta

Post by Jeffinn »

Another old and abused workhorse. It was pretty rough when I received it with broken Delrin handles and ground down blades;

I gave it a couple of new polished blades, some nice Barbwire Canvas micarta handles and a bit of bolster threading and its ready for another few years!

Superb work, Jeff!
Did that knife originally have Swinden keys, or was it pinned through? I have not yet taken apart one of those big boys.

Good morning Rev!
They have a little of each. At the pivot end there’s a Swinden key and at the tail end there’s a pin through the rear bolster.
