Great tread thanks for sharing ! Here's one I just acquired.
Great find niko! And, it came with the fingerguard. Well done.
George Schrade was a genius and these Wire Jacks are big fun for me. He invented the switchblade!
NIKOKNIFE48, please tell me that that is the full size spearpoint. I was beginning to think it didn't exist. If it is I have only seen in catalog pics before. Could you give us the size and more pics to drool on? thanks, randy/rtmind.
Please pardon me niko, yes rtmind that is the large heavy duty full size spearpoint. Good spot. I have a story/tip for you so I will send you email as it is Seattle specific (collector source info Geo. Schrade) if you would please enable your email or send me email or private message. Here are a few pics of some of my Wire Jacks for your amusement:
Notice that the middle knife, large clip point, has a slightly thinner more elegant slicer blade than the three heavy duty utility blades.
These three are the large heavy duty (thicker blades) utility knives: Fishing, hawkbill and spearpoint.
The axe is heavy, thick, formidable and probably a better promo than a chopper. Schrade would acid etch your business name and particulars on the blade at your request. The spearpoint has etched "THE OSBORNE COMPANY NO. 700-1125"
