Schrade Clasp knife, Sears Roebuck & Co

Post by Rusty1 »

Picked this up on e-bay last week, I have seen other Clasp knives with the etching on the blade, I also have several in my own collection although I have never seen this particular model, The etching has two initials on the side of the etch F G which I assume means Frank Giorgianni.

Anyone seen these before or know how many were made and roughly what year of manufacture, a guess would be late 70's early 80's
