All About Pocket Knives

Picked up a Schrade+ Copenhagen series knife today. Have gone through my knife books and many pages here on the computer but can't seem to find much on the series. If anyone has some knowledge on when this series came out and a lockback number, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Dale H.

Dale, Schrade made MANY knives with the Copenhagen logo, mostly during the early to mid 1990's. Yours sounds like an LB7. If you could post a pic I can likely narrow it down for you.

ea42, I got a new camera and am having problems uploading pics at the moment. Not so sure though that the knife is a LB7. The handle measures 3 3/4 inches and the blade is 2 5/8 inches. Does the LB7 vary in length? There is a Copenhagen medallion embedded in the handle. The handle is black, saw cut Delrin I believe. It's a solidly built knife. Dale H.

ea42 is right......Schrade did a lot of different knives with Copenhagen as well as Skoal. I have at least a dozen of each and at least 6 different models. Really gonna need a picture to help you further. If you can't post a picture...check the AAPK Stores for Schrade knives and see if you can at least see a picture of the style of the knife you have.

Sounds like it may be a 5OT or even a LB-5. Both were 3-3/4 inches closed.
I haven't seen either of those patterns in black Delrin before, but that don't mean nothin'!
Either of those would probably look good in black Delrin, especially with brass bolsters, IMO.

I am anxiously awaiting some pics!

Dale

Had to resort back to my old camera, but hopefully here it is! Dale H.

That lockback is just one of four knives I picked up yesterday. It was a knife day! Dale H.

Nice LB-5 Dale!
That is a good looking knife!

I have not seen one of those before.

Dale

Thanks Dale. I'm thinking about going back to my source again this afternoon. There is an Ulster and a Sears I looked long and hard at yesterday. He handed me three boxes of knives to go thru, most of which are wore out. Dig deep though, the good ones settle at the bottom. LOL Dale H. Oh yeah, I forgot to metion the 8ot I passed on. That knife has strong snap!

By the time I dug mine out and photographed it, then got time to post the pic, 268Bull had posted his. Since I went to all that effort I'm gonna post mine anyway.

They are a rock solid feeling little lockback. Somehow mine feels a bit more substantial than the regular LB 5 I have does.

Phil

Aren't they solid feeling Phil!! I passed on an 8 OT for this knife. Now I'm thinking I need to go back and get that knife. Dale H.

I have an LB-7 LTD that looks just like youre LB-5 Phil with a few difference:

Size...it is an LB-7
Same Copenhagen Shield
Black treated Blade
GOLD "Copenhagen/SKOAL PRO RODEO" overlay on the blade
Black Leather Sheath

I'm going to try and scan a picture

Tom

Nice knives.
I think that brass & black combo really looks sharp (pun not intended).

Dale
