Schrade made D-E 1/2 Trapper

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.

Schrade made D-E 1/2 Trapper

I did not think this knife was correct, but I found a picture of
one like it in a older Sargents book. My pictures are bad but
the blade grinds are different than I had ever seen on one of
these before. What do you think? Pics should click larger.

Schrade Cut Co - In their old catalogs, it was not uncommon to see knives where both sabre and flat grinds were offered, as well as single blade configurations, for the same knife. The price lists show even more variations. This serpentine jack pattern was offered as early as 1926.

This is a 2943 3/4 Schrade Cut pattern, 294 if a Schrade Walden. The fact both blades are stamps indicates it is older, maybe even pre WWII, which would it into the Cut Co era, or early Schrade Walden. Very nice knife. ::tu::

Thanks guys. Hal where do you go to see these catalogs? Do you have them, or
go on line somewhere? I have alot of books and can find many knives, but I don't
have the old Schrade catalogs. Can I buy reproductions?

Thanks
