All About Pocket Knives

I know that Schrade etched some of their blades for one reason or another. I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread about those knives.

Here's a fairly common one

A Schrade SS825 with its RAZOR BLADE STAINLESS etch.

Here's an old cut co era scout etch.

Nice scout AKC! Is that the one with the "gold" punch??

Here's an 804 with a Carpenters etch.

This one lets you know it is stainless steel! Sorry for the poor scan. It is not always successful to scan etches!

One more tonight, a Fisherman's Pride.

Charlie, I betcha wouldn't have one of those Fisherman's Pride knives in persimmon seed jigged bone would ya? I hear that type of bone is a hot item on fleece-bay right now. All nice looking knives gentlemen.

Thanks Upnorth, yup, that's the one. That pearl of yours is a superb looking knife You sure don't find many in that condition.

Have a few I can share.
First one is an Orgill 150th ammiverserary edition that I find interesting
since Schrade forgot to include the small vertical lines to complete the
fold in the ribbon on the etch.
Scroll on the box is correct, omission only on blade etch.

Naturally gots to have
a Duck UnLaminated:

This will be a KOOL tread I think. Thanks for thinking of it.

I see the Duck and it made me think of this one I have.

Schrade Ducks LB7 Stag 24K Gold 5"

Here is one I got off fleabay about 3 years ago.
It would seem to be a prototype judging from the 0000 serial number on the bolster, but sometimes I don't trust the fleabay "Prototypes" though I have no reason tho think the serial # was not put there at the factory.

I have seen some sales-mens sample cases with all four 0000s.

I have a feeling that could be were that one came out of.

That may be worth more than a PROTYPE if you had the others from that kit.

Just my thought for the day....

Dale,

That may also be a photo sample, they often had a PS prefix before the zeros, but not always. Nice knife!!!!

Here are a couple of etchings from the Ellenville 4th of July knives:

Some fine examples in here, gentlemen. Very nice!

I only have one that hasn't been posted yet. Walden era Stockman 880.

Here's a blade etch that no one is going to enjoy

It's the first time I've seen one so I thought it needed to be posted

Schrade Walden 855


Craftstman Super Sharp


Couple of Imperials


Melon Sampler Stainless Razor


Another razor, distant cousin

Nice Razors Hal!
You have a great collection in general!

Here's an odd one. I wonder if it's real ?

Has anyone seen this etch before???

Nice and interesting knives in this thread!

upnorth,
With my loner of a brain cell I may be very wrong, but that etch seems familiar. If I've seen it, it must have been on a picture...
I don't know if the knife is real... Looks nice, though!

That etch looks familiar to me too Charlie, at least the clipper part does. What a fantastic knife!!!!!

That is a pretty knife Charlie. he knife rang a bell with me too. I remembered where I saw the same arrow in the etch, from times of wishing knife pictures could come to life. It appears your knife has a similar spear blade from the same era. Not sure if there is any connection though.





As a side note, I've wanted to find a stabber jack. Cool pattern.

Schrade also etched many of their switchblade knives that were made between 1904 and 1956. Here are three of the etches that they used on their 8 3/4" open automatics:

Hi from Australia,
This is just some of my Schrade's with Etching. I found the give-a-ways, to be some-thing very special and hard to find.
I hope evey one likes them, as thay are not seen now-a-days...Ken

Some more of my Down-Under collection...Ken

Looking at my collection, I should and will start a Duck-Pond for all the Schrade Duck Knives out there.

A lot of nice Schrades you have there, KG.

I know this is about Blade Etchings. However I must show off my Sterling Silver 25th. Anniversary SS34
It was never finished off, it dose not have a Blade Etching or a Sterling Silver shilde in the handle.
Only one handle has been shaped and polished - the other handle is un-tuched.
I have six SS34 in their nice wooden box with the velvet bag ect ect, and I payed top $$$ for all six of them.

I only payed $10 for this un-finished SS34 - I think the best knife buy ever....Ken
