Elusive Schrades

Not as elusive as others here, yet it did take quite a while landing this 787. I’ve always admired the earlier Schrade delrin in photos, now and in hand, I really understand. Very pronounced with depth and great colour. The pull on both blades is around a 5 with no play or wobble in any position. Great snap and tidy when folded. Really sharp blades! I luv this one. :):thumbsup::thumbsup:

That's the best Delrin that Schrade produced!!:thumbsup:
 
Thanks Charlie!

This one is a little rough but I thought it was pretty cool. It seems to be a simplified 8373 3/4. Possible wartime production? Plain steel bolsters, no shield, fostarene (plastic) handles. I like them with character like this.

Thanks Duncan et.al!!
Here is an inexpensive, but well-made little knife!
It has nice chunks of competently-made French Ivory, for handles, and the knife functions perfectly!
Just what you need to trim your Jade plant!!!!:D
