The Schrade-Walden Yukon #250

[Meridian_Mike]

Hello all....
I found this knife on the bay last week and it was a bit confusing at fist. I saw a tang stamp that read....

SCHRADE-WALDEN
N.Y. U.S.A.
250

I thought, is this a 25OT that is missing the "T"..????

The seller had 3 POOR pictures.... Here is the one that got me interested......

I started looking around a bit and with Cal's help, he turned the light on for me.
This knife was make expressly for Norm Thompson. In this ad.. (thanks Cal).. there is a picture of the Yukon Hunter in the upper right corner of the ad......

Here is the other 2 pictures from the seller of the knife I bought....

The secondary blade is missing BUT... I have an Uncle Henry parts knife that I can harvest the secondary blade from.
I was pleased to see the "YUKON" shield is still in the mark side cover. This knife is not in the best shape BUT I think it will clean up OK!!
This is an exciting project for me! I can't wait to get this knife in hand.



I'm sure some of you have a NICE LOOKING Yukon to show us....
(I know Cal does...)

Let's see your Yukon!
