Hello friends. This is a GAW. If you clicked on the thread you must have some affection for the medium stockman and I’m giving away a nice example. (Or you jumped in here to tell me I didn’t need to start another stockman thread 😉)

Rules:
Open to all frequenters of the porch with 50 or more posts in the Traditional forum. I will ship internationally where permitted.

Probably goes without saying, but don’t turn around and sell it. That would not be nice.

Simply post ‘I’m in’. You may enter on behalf of a friend if you choose.

Pictures of Traditional knives are greatly appreciated because everyone likes to see them. Stockmans would be most appropriate!

I’ll let this run through the week but may end early if the thread slows down. I’ll give 24 hr notice if it’s ending early.

I’ll use one of those random number generators to pick a winner.


The gift:
A like-new-in-box vintage Schrade USA 834 medium stockman. I bought this as a backup for one of my favorite knives years ago. I’ve decided backups are not necessary for me, and I would like to pass it on for someone else to enjoy.

It’s in great shape. I see very minimal signs of age, zero signs of use, and I have not cleaned it. Just occasionally applied mineral oil. It’s a fine specimen for 40-50 years old.

Best of luck and thank you for stopping by.

That's a beauty.

Not an entry, because I have one and I like 'em a little bigger.
Schrade made a longer sheepfoot than most; I always admired that.

Ironically I have two medium stockman. Neither of which do I feel I can carry or use


A Case 63087 that I inherited from my father ...which I don't dare lose or damage
And a buck 303 that was a gift from a coworker and friend that HE had inherited from HIS father..which I don't dare losing or damaging

So...yeah I am in
Maybe I'll get to see what everyone's dad's loved about those knives

I have had both the Case and Buck variants and I like the Schrade the best. Fits nicely in my pocket, slices like the dickens. Fathers know best 😀
 
Man o Man I DO like the configuration of that SHRADE much better than this ULSTER 58OT I have from the mid 60's
( but will never part with it because it's part of the R.J. Reynolds Prince Albert knife campaign set )
Side note: Been strongly considering a Buck 303 last couple of days. Sometimes the 301 is just too big. That Schrade looks to be about well, perfect !!!

Awesome knife
I only have 1 medium stockman, GEC 66 in camel bone.

I’m not a GEC collector (I certainly like them) but I’m surprised this one slipped past me. I guess when I saw the 66 I assumed it was a big boy because the pictures make it look so substantial. Really nice! Love the green camel bone. Thanks for sharing it here.
