Tang stamp:

Schrade +
LB5 USA

Blade etch:
Napanoch Fire Dept.
1926 65th. Anniversary 1991

115 on bolster
The shield is a Maltese Cross with Napanoch 42 on it.

A buddy of mine purchased some Schrade lockbacks from Roland/kootenay joe. I bought this one off of him. Since I am a retired firefighter I thought it was pretty cool.

Anybody here a member of the Napanoch Fire Dept??

I think that is one of the nicest of all LB5's. The round shield and it's position closer to the end of the handle, along with the blade etch, all really 'flow' together well. It is the only one i have seen so it is not common. Wonder how many were actually made ?
Thanks for posting it.

All six of the Schrades he purchased from you were nice knives. I liked the white handled one also.
To bad the Damascus bladed one had the pitting on the one bolster. It did have a really cool sheath.
Do you know if any other Schrades came with that type sheath?

Yes, the fancy leather sheath came in 2 sizes and was used for some special edition knives. I have a "Matco Tools" LB7 with the large size fancy sheath. Will take a picture when daylight.

Lovely knife David.

Two sizes, otherwise the same.

If anyone has one to fit an LB7, I would be interested in purchasing one.

Here is the Matco Tools LB7

Nice one Roland

Very nice knife!
I love that FD shield!

I know a few guys in the Napanoch Fire Dept.

I would like to get a shirt patch to display with the knife.
Is that something you could help me out with?
I'm willing to pay.
