i have just acquired another "mint" LB7. this one has smooth black handles with 4 large pins and a round NRA shield, silver bolsters and blade etch: "National Rifle Association/SPECIAL EDITION" and tang: SCHRADE+/USA LTD.
does anyone know it's year of issue ?
thanks, roland
 
Roland,
Sorry I can't help you with the year on this one. I checked mine to see if the paperwork gave an indication, but no luck. Nice knife though!
 
thanks Dave
since they are 4 pin handles, probably they are from the 4 pin era ? ('77-81 ?)

Can you put up a photo please Roland..I think I may have one too.From memory the modern micarta LB7's have 4 pins as distinct from the early LB7's.
 
here is the NRA LB7

That N.R.A lb7 was put out in 1992 according to my books,a cool knife,I have one also,happy collecting,G.M
 
thanks Mr. Menace. i wonder if these were made using the original 4-pin handle dies ?
or if new dies, then it would be a 2nd generation 4 pin LB7 !
