My knife books generally state "a whittler is a three blade knife with a large blade in one end and two small cutting blades of equal length in the other end. Some whittlers have two springs and each small blade bears on one of the springs with the large master blade extra thick and bears on both springs".
"They can range in pen knives under 2 inches closed up to heavy cutting tools over 4 inches long. These were called Carpenters knives"
I have seen various Schrades described as 'Whittlers" e.g. 804<1> 893,804,863,831,plus the Ulster 58OT. Schrade brought out Commemorative Whittlers and Collaborations as well.
My photos show the 863, Ulster 58OT, Heritage 8041 and identical Mountain Whittler Knife Club 1982 <1 of 100>.Plus a very old Cut Co Whittler and box,and some others.
Schrade Cut.Co. Bicentennial Whittler Commemorating Kentucky and Tennessee from 1976 <3000 made>..."made up of original old bits"
Warren Whittler LE <1500 sets> Warren #1 wharncliffe style blade and Warren#2 modified pen style both in high carbon steel."Both styles of True Whittlers were designed by Warren Tool Co to perpetuate whittling and carving as an art and craft and made by Schrade Cutlery Corp."
The grand-daddy set of all which gave a configuration of every style blade was the Schrade Rogers <only 300 sets made> collaboration "Exchange -A-Blade Set"Featuring smooth Jade bone handles with genuine Pearl inlays....mongrammed leather storage pouch.Can you imagine ripping into a piece of Poplar with this dainty elaborate set? I originally obtained the second set to do just that but havn't had the heart to since Schrade closure..I wonder how many did with only 298 other sets out there in Schrade land.
Soooo lets see your other Schrade Whittlers.....Hoo Roo
