Hey all. Got a couple of things I need help with. I picked up a stone that looks a lot like the stone that was included with the OLD Schrade Walden 165. It looks to be the same size as the stone in this picture:

but it is unmarked. The stone is 3 1/8" x 1 3/4" x 5/16" thick. Does anyone either know the dimensions of the old stones or have one they could measure? I have nothing to compare to.

Second, a nice member gave me a link to a Google search engine for bladeforums. Unfortunately I had to reload my computer and forgot to backup my favorites. Can anyone give me that link again, please?

Thanks

I had never noticed this stone before. Here is a flyer from 1971 showing it with the 165 and the 15OT. I'll keep looking I see the stone all the way back to 1964 in the 15OT

coffeecup,
PHENONIMAL on the search engine, thank you. Gotta remember to back up those favorites.

Irv,
If you or anyone have one of those older marked stones and could measure it I sure would appreciate it.
 
to search bladeforums at google, simply type your search words and put this at the end.

"site:www.bladeforums.com" <--------- don't include the quotes.

"schrade stone site:www.bladeforums.com" <----- again...no quotes
 
I have a stone that came with a Schrade-Walden 15OT, it mesures 3"x 1 3/4" and 3/8" thick. Not sure if that helps.

morrow, thank you.

Upstream, that is close enough that I believe that what I have is a unmarked Schrade stone. Thank you.

Bridgeman, looks like you definitely have a match, I've got a marked stone from the SW 15OT boxed set that measures 5/16"X1 3/4"X3 1/8". Same set as the one in the flyer above. The stone is light grey with dark blue writing. It seems they used different shades of stone and ink for different knife sets, the drawings in the flyer seem to reflect this also.
