I have a few blanks. SOme are apparent as to their origin, but otehrs are more obscure. I was told that the four on the right were made up for a proposed plan for schrade to sell kit knives. I remain somewhat skeptical about this.

Some excellent and very cool blanks shown!
 
Michael, Harold says he remembers something like those kit blanks, Wally says they don'y ring a bell at all. Gonna have to ask Dave on Monday for the tie breaker ;)

I was told by the seller that was their origin, but I take sellers' tales with a grain of salt. Or teaspoon. I would appreciate some authentication or debunking, either way. From what I have learned, new designs and marketing went haywire in the latter days when know-nothing consultants were brought in by the owner. Some that we retrospectively think would have been a hit never made it to production and some relative flops that I refer to as "space debris" did. I always appreciate your input Eric.
