Hi all,
Having problems trying to post a picture of this rascal so maybe someone can help. I just picked up a 8 1/2 inch skinner marked J.M. Wade 1994 #25. This knife is quality start to finish and fits me perfectly, however i can't find anything on this smith anywhere! Any help with the pictures or information regarding this fellow would be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance and God bless. r.cordell

Coop,
Thank you for the information and quick reply. I will try to contact James and will keep you posted. Take care and God bless. r.cordell
 
Hello Coop,
I tried the phone # for Wade and it is no longer his #. I am going to try listing this on some of the other forums and see if I can find any additional info regarding this craftsman. Is there any chance of getting a scan of the page you found in mid 90's Knives Annual? Thanks in advance and God bless. r.cordell
 
I found a phone number for a James M. Wade in Wade, NC, that has the same Zip Code as listed in Coop's contact info.

(910) 483-3548
 
Keith,
Thank you for the number, unfortunately it no longer belongs to Mr wade. However any additional suggestions would certainly be more than welcome. Thanks for the help and God bless. r.cordell
 
Keith,
Your Andrews knife is beautiful, any chance a larger picture might be floating around the forum? Also what handle material did you choose?? Thanks in advance and God bless. r.cordell
 
talked with him today. Still lives in Wade NC. Makes a few knives and would look forward to talking with you . Drop me a e-mail and I'll give you his #
 
Hello Andy, Coop and Keith,
Thank you for all the help locating Mr Wade. It turns out that we had a typo on Coops tel # and it was 910 instead of 919. And thanks to Andys tenacity Mr Wade was finally contacted. I left a message for him today and he returned my call but I was at a political rally. I will call him back tomorrow and who knows------Maybe another knife is in the near future!!!!!!!! Take care and God bless. r.cordell
