SCHRADE USA in a Collectors Tin?

[Ballenxj]

I've had this one for a while now. I think it's a Schrade 601? It's complete with tin showing the Old Schrade building in it's unopened blister pack.
If anyone has more info about this, I'd love to hear it.
PS, That's a money clip with the SCHRADE name on it in the upper left.

Bruce - That is a Schrade 881 with stainless blades. Nice you have one in the tin. Does it have a date on it anywhere?

I guess you're right about it being an 881. It was very hard to make out through the plastic, so I dug out a macro lens to help myself out. (See pic below)
I looked the whole package over, but couldn't find a date.

I found an old post about the Founders Edition 881.

I was thinking it was a 2002 or 2003, this might have been where I got the idea. That knife will show up on occasion minus the tin.

Thanks for digging this up Hal.
