It's Old Timer time, fellas: Show your U.S.-made OTs

Only Old Timer I currently own. 108OT with an Ulster 89/Craftsman 9473. Likely made in the same Ulster Schrade plant at Ellenville, NY. I am NOT a fan of the cost cutting Swinden key construction used on many Old Timers.

Here's one I carried for many, many years. My dad got it for me through an offer on a Prince Albert tobacco tin in 1964 or so, for $2.00. It's an Ulster Old Timer. It's pretty wobbly and doesn't get carried anymore. It's always on display in my office and gets picked up and admired now and then.

That's awesome Gary! What a great keepsake on several levels. Thanks for sharing that. :thumbup:
 
This well worn early model 8OT is my most cherished knife. It belonged to my paternal Grandfather. It was given to me by my Grandmother on the day of his funeral. He passed on 9/26/68.

I like Schrades, great and small, all the way back to 1904. Here is a 165OT. Re-done by Herman Williams in white bone.

Here is a rare one, a Shikari for Norm Thompson, very early 1960s. Check out that original sheath.
