Schrade Red Bone 8OT - Was this the best Schrade 8OT ever?

The Red Bone knives made by Schrade are a must have set for your collection.
Schrade made a 3 knife set of the Red Bone Knives. KG

I like the early Schrade Walden era bone handled 8OT's. Hand finished blade grinds, saw cut bone, and I like the matchstrike nail nick.

The jigged bone of the Old Timer Classics series is the 'best' handle, but it has stainless blades instead of the excellent 1095.

I like the early Schrade Walden era bone handled 8OT's.

I'd like one of those, but they're so dang rare.

Hi thawk, my Schrade Walden 8OT was polished up a little before I got it. The saw cut bone is still showing the saw marks in the bone.
Like Bob, I would like a new 1959 Old Timer 8OT with Saw-cut Bone Handles, in its' box. Ken

They are for sure. I carry an old 881 sometimes with delrin handles.

This Yellow handled 8OT is a hard to find knife, that I like.
