Elusive Schrades

[JM2]

This is a very interesting thread. Somewhat depressing though thinking about how the schrade USA is no more. I grew up with schrade, and for them to go bankrupt was a major loss in the knife world. Thanks everyone for sharing your knowledge here.

Not that I could find, Lyle. Perhaps if you emailed the site owner? I emailed him in the past for permission to post some of his catalog pages to this forum and the other. He was very accommodating. I believe he is a member on AAPK?

Here is Schrade CC Texas Jack (Moose) pattern no. 7813 (Schrade 1926 catalog pg. 46). The catalog says it is 4 inches. I measure
this example at 3 & 15/16 inches. I was drawn to it because of the beautiful pick bone handles and the blade finishes. The clip point mark side blade is crocus finished and all other blade surfaces are glazed. The folder does not look to have been used or sharpened post production.

This jack has spun pins and because of this it is definitely a 1920s or later produced specimen. I think it is generally accepted that in American cutlery hammered pins are circa pre 1920 and spun pins are circa post 1920. The pick bone handles are usually associated with pre 1920 knives. Anyway here are the photos sorry for the rather loud back ground color I usually use something a lot more muted

A small Schrade Cut Co dogleg, just over 3". Typical great Schrade bone, full blades, good pulls and snaps. Don't recall seeing this pattern all that often, I guess it might be considered a peanut.

All were made in very limited numbers, none made it to retailers. Most were only partially finished:

Latest Schrade find, a stainless 826 stockman, not a regular catalog item, only comes up in the 1953 and 1954 price list. Unused in its original box, they were packaged in individual boxes instead of the 6 knife box.

Gotta love the milled liners. Nice catch!

Nothing fancy here, but a nice little mini-barlow at 2 3/4 inches. Only appeared in the catalogs in 1953. They did a few in different covers.
