I’ve been on a bit of a spree I guess, these are the last three I have on order for a while, liking the mother of pearl. I’m not sure the year of the Schrade Walden 804 but it kind of looks like derlin handles to me which I think would put it sometime in the 60’s maybe?

Gus, Schrade Walden 804 is from roughly 1961-'72. Earlier they used bone, and later was no longer Schrade Walden.
Thank you, I confirmed it is derlin handles so definitely sometime after I think ‘63. I think that’s when I read they switched to Derlin.

I’ve said that everyday for the past 500 days 😂😂
my rationale was there was a few empty slots available in my 5th case. Seriously though its nice to have some older stuff and brands I haven't experienced. I can really appreciate history of it all. I can stop at any time 😬
