I see several of these "Walden razor/trappers listed on ebay and on the SMKW website:

raztrap



" SMKW is proud to bring you the first run of knives using the historic Walden Knife Co. tang stamp and genuine walnut handles from Schrade's Ellenville factory, bringing the cutlery industry history of Walden full circle.
·Stainless steel blades
·"Walden Knife Co." master blade imprint
·"Walden Knife Co. Made in U.S.A." tang stamp
·Genuine walnut handle
·Brass liners
·Nickel silver pins, bolsters and custom shield
·4" closed "

It doesn't specifically say that these knives were made in the USA,just that the handles and the tang stamp from the Ellenville factory were used.
Were these knives made by Schrade,another US company,or the red chinese?
Did Schrade ever make this model in the early days?
Thanks,
Ron

That confirms what Dale said.He also said there was an old thread on it,but I couldn't find it.

I have an Uncle Henry, wood handles, nickle silvder bolsters, I blade. The blade is stamped Uncle Henry, schrade + LB 5. It is rather hard to sharpen. What kind of steel is it made of? I am a newbie here, you may have already discussed. Thanks for the help!
 
Depending on when you knife was produced, it is either 440A or 420HC. Read the FAQ post at the top of the page and follow the link on Schrade Steels.
