I've been looking for one of these to add to my collection for years now. Finally last week I was lucky enough to acquire one and it arrived yesterday ::nod::

Discription from the Old Timer Almanac dated March 1979

"To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of making high quality knives, Schrade Cutlery will make a limited edition of the $1,000.00 retail knife. This knife illustrated in detail on page 6, will be a deluxe version of the standerd 75th Anniversary knife. It will feature solid sterling silver bolsters, sterling silver shields and liners and custom made craftsmanship throughout to enhance its value.

The finely etched blade will feature the original Schrade factory as it stood in 1904 and Shaw-Leibowitz gold overlay.

Each knife is serilized and comes in a solid walnut gift box with a brief reference to other outstanding events that made 1904 a year of distinction. In addition, the back spring and liners as well as the blade back will be handworked by Herman Williams and Bob Read."


Everything about the knife is incredible including the India Stag handles not mentioned in the description ::ds::
