  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Camillus and Schrade of Old Given Short Shrift Now-A-Days

Info gleaned from previous owner, and other sources!!
"The Model 8813 was introduced in 1926 by Schrade Cut Co as the Premium Texas Stock Knife and in 1952 the pattern number was shortened to 881. The 881 inked on the blade but not stamped on the back of the tang of the main blade would indicate 1952 production. Also there was a model shown in the “Elusive Schrades” thread said to have been only in the catalogue in 1953-54 and the pics showed the “Schrade Walden NY USA” tang stamp. This one reads “Schrade Walden NY” further encouraging the 1952 hypothesis."
Nice, early "Walden", still using Peachseed!! 😁 Walden peachseed Stock 1.jpgWalden peachseed Stock 2.jpg

Note the salesman's ink on the blade!!😎

Been on a 3-day business trip down to the wallboard plant; got home and changed into shorts, grabbed a light jackknife and my wife, and we went out to Waffle House (her choice!) for dinner. Schrade USA 33OT.
