WHAT TO DO WITH AN OLD SCHRADE 8341 from AUSTRALIA.

Schrade Cutlery Company was founded in 1904 by George Schrade, and his brothers Jacob and William Schrade. In 1946 Imperial Knife Associated Companies, (IKAC; an association of Ulster Knife Co and Imperial Knife Co) purchased controlling interest in Schrade Cut Co and changed the name to Schrade Walden Cutlery. In 1973 the name was changed to Schrade Cutlery. In 2004 Schrade closed due to bankruptcy.

This forum is dedicated to the knives that are the legacy of this company. This forum is not the place to discuss the replica knives currently being imported using the Schrade name.

I had an old Schrade 8341 with Red Bone Scales. However, one of the scales had a very large crack in it. ::shrug::
A holiday for that old knife in the U.S.A; and staying at my friend Dale’s Work Shop soon put that right. ::ds::
These before and after photos show the unbelievable talent of Dale!
Thank You Dale, ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu::
I love your work and this knife will take Top Place in my soon to be finished Display Unit... Ken

Wow is right - Dale is an artist!
Deep in the guts of most men is buried the involuntary response to the hunter's horn, a prickle of the nape hairs, an acceleration of the pulse, an atavistic memory of his fathers, who killed first with stone, and then with club...Robert Ruark

Nice job on the shield Ken! ::tu:: ::tu::
Did you do that?
I just don't trust my hands where one slip ruins a piece of stag.
I believe that was some of the stag that came out of the Henckels factory in Germany after they closed down their pocket knife making about 1960.

Hi Dale,
Yes! I did fit the shield, it was not a problem for me.
I was quite aware that your hands have been a problem in the past year, and that is why I asked you to leave the shield.
::tu:: I am very impressed with your workmanship, and I will proudly display your work in my soon to be finished Display Case...
Thank You once more OLD MATE....Ken ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu::
