Did Schrade make anything with a Wharncliff blade?

Hi Eric - Thanks for the info :thumbup: Medical Schools huh? COOL!

Care to make a guess on the years for the 3-blade?

After some more reading and comparing, I may be off-topic posting here. Not a Wharncliffe blade, it's a lance blade. Looks to hook more past flat than a Sheepsfoot.

Seems I have 2 of these Lilly 3-blades - DOH!
My best example has the same 2-7/8" length as the 3-blade 878RB ('64-'68) and the spear and file blades.
Difference being the 878RB's pen blade is replaced with a lance blade.

The 2nd example looks like the lance blade has been ground down some - well, more than some! :rolleyes:
Had no idea it was short until I compared it.

Guess for now I'll list them as 878RB 'Lilly'.
Pics along side a Schrade USA 272 (same 2-7/8")
Have an 878RB with the RB etch somewhere but couldn't find it.
Does that only happen to me?

Thanks lrv, I guess the Barnett could lay claim to the largest Warncliff blade produced by Schrade......When I hold my well made Barnett I've alwys got mixed feelings about its futuristic unusual beauty.........looks to me more like a caterpillar with my mother in laws' nose crawling out of a cow pat...in the process of metamorphorsising into a dung beetle......certainly a different design IMO...and left Schrade nowhere to go from there...except maybe to China...Hoo Roo
