Thread: A Nice Surprise.

The paperwork inside says solid nickel silver bolsters & shield & rose wood handles
The edge is factory & I won't hone it,,, leave it as is.

Yeah. That is a 'Sunday' knife. No loose change around that!

Thank you ,,,,,,

WOW that's a gem! Very collectible as well. Lot's of people collect the old Schrade knives. In fact Bladeforums has a whole subforum devoted to them. Very cool!

John - those do look like sterling silver assay marks. If so they will give you the date if you care to do a little research.

Wow. Knives is on my addiction disorder list too, and that is a beauty!

Indeed they do, BUT, they aren't. They're on there just for looks on that series.

Those are nice knives.

I've got an NOS I*XL that was made at the "end of days" of that company. It is a sad excuse of a Knife from a company with such a glorious past.

That's a good one John. Keeper for sure.
