The (New and Improved) old school Schrade thread

Thanks Hal! The pen is 3 5/16" with sunk joints and very slim, it's amazing how thin they could make the covers back then. #7783B on p.45 of the catalog.

Nice stock knife!

Similarly, here is another slim single spring senator with a clip blade. It's a shorter length at 3 1/8". I believe a 7423 3/4B from p.86 (1932). If you look around pages 31 -37, in the 1926, Schrade Cut Co made a wide variety of senator pen knives on this frame
 
Wow guys, way to step up the game! Eric, I didn't know Schrade made the USA Sabre's. I always just passed those over...

Since you shared your Olsens, I have one too.

These Imperial Diamond Edge knives from the early 1970's used the same handles as the Sabre and Olsen. I've never seen any other in the "Baer family" with these satin finished stainless blades though, but that Sabre looks like it might have the same grind.

Now that I see that DE, I can see the resemblance. Good detective work!
