The Allusive Schrade - 294.

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.

The Allusive Schrade - 294.

Post by Schradenut »

I have been an intense collector of all things Schrade for a few years now, but with all collections there is that one that never seems to come your way, mine was a Schrade Open Stock, 294(with the pen blade).
My mate had one, and on many occasions, I threatened to steal it from him, and it had become the subject of much discussion and laughter.
The strangest thing happened at a recent shoot we were both attending, when he GAVE me the 294. Well you could have blown me over with a feather, that he would give me such an expensive sought after gift.
Chris, many, many thanks for your generosity, and it is now front & centre with some of my best knives(beside Dale's TL-29 custom job actually).
I hope you all enjoy the pics.
Tony.

I like the California Clip (Turkish Clip, Muskrat or whatever you want to call it) paired up with the pen. I can see why you wanted it. Once a grail knife is acquired, there's always another waiting in the wings. What's your next conquest?

Hi Jerryd,

The next one on the list is: "America's Conquest of Space", from the quincentennial series. I was fortunate enough to acquire the other 5, and the disc, so i am desperate to complete the set. To get the box as well would be asking too much.

I expect the 294 to suddenly appear back in my shooting box when we are next at the range together.
