A New "OLD SCHOOL" thread

The cell on the bottom knife is a beige waterfall, Glenn, and I'll watch for your moniker when I'm looking at Schrades on Ebay!
 
Okay,

Here is one that I just picked up.

It was listed as a salesman's sample. The seller is a quality seller, that has had a good vein of pristine schrades for sale lately. I got it for a good price. It is a nice example of the tortoise shell cell.

Nice one, Glenn! Great find.

My contribution: Gold Imperial lobsters in the original 'Anson' gift boxes. Was a price tag on one for $35.

Man, those are nice!

There are no treasures like that around here...:(

Glenn
 
Phil has so many nice knives, that we can plainly see he just has them sitting around on the floor. :D

Bill
 
He probably has no room to walk around in his house.

Send them here, I feel your pain, and have plenty of room. ;)

Glenn
 
Ya know what they say...

Go Big or go home...:D

Here's another little beauty:

M7934GPT.jpg


I think this might be a "tweener". It says Schrade Walden, but there is no pattern number. I attempted to ID it with the SCC catalog, and got a good match. A tiny little thing at 2 1/2" closed. I think it is a M7934GPT. "M" for the flexible manicure nail file, "7934" for the 2 blade senator with cell handles, and I think it is Golden Pearl cell, so that is the "GP". "T" for tipped bolsters, of course.

That's my guess, anyway. Enjoy..

Nice "tweener" Glenn! Still learning the jargon, but I guess that's a transition period knife between SCC and S-W! I've posted about all my SCC's, (see Larry's site) so here are some Waldens, some of which you Ebayers will recognize from recent times. My budget from selling some other (non-Schrade of course) knives is rapidly disappearing, so my posting will slow right down soon :( !

Very nice! You never know just where the Wonda-Edge serrated (Schrade called "Scalloped") blades will turn up. They were first listed in the catalogs in 1957 on the 145WE,147LWE and 148LWE rigid blades, 293WE 3 7/8" Serpentine two blade Jack. In 1959, they added the H-15WE and listed it thru 1964. I never found the 137LWE listed, but I have one. None of the Wonda-Edge knives were listed after the mid sixties. But... we know the 89OT had the serrated blade. I did not find the rope/hawser knife listed with the Wonda-Edge, but they obviously made it! Trademark #72023627 02/11/1958 was the WONDA-EDGE mark.

Codger, is there anything about Schrades you DON'T know??
'course if you knew that you'd know it---or something;;;;
Buh dee-ah, buh dee-ah that's all folks :confused: :eek: :D
 
Like yourself, I am learning more every day. I don't post this stuff to show off. I post it to share. Information up til now has been so sparse, that I feel like every bit of information that we can add here is a milestone, and adds to the individual collector's knowledge base both now, and through the archives, well into the future. Does anyone else have a Wonda-Edge knife that I have missed noting?
