Thanks everybody for the comments. Nice to see you here Duncan.

Treefarmer the etch was for maher & grosh, I assume so they could market the knife under their line. I believe maher & grosh were always contract made knives but I could be wrong. Either way schrade made some knives for them, either etched, stamped or both. I know very little about maher & grosh so that's about all I can tell you, I bought the knife because I like old bone schrades and cattle knives. :D

Thanks Paul ::tu::

I am sure anyone would have bought that knife immediately- it’s a hang of a nice one, I think you are correct - M & G had their knives made for them.
I am not home right now but if you wanted to confirm either Goins or Levine 4 will list them as either wholesaler or manufactures.
