The Yin and the Yang

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 Yin and the Yang

Post by OLDE CUTLER »

I picked up this Schrade-Walden 225H at a local antique mall yesterday and it has the shield engraved with the words "Asten Felts" and has the symbol for the Yin and Yang. Must be some kind of an advertiser. Maybe it is even good luck. Anyone seen this before?
