Is this correct?
"Schrade": King/Patriarch/Head/Top
"Uncle Henry": Heir to the throne
"Old Timer": Grandson, chiefly interested in the working class who hunted and fished, second in line for the throne after Uncle Henry
"Imperial": Older brother of King Schrade, who abdicated the throne to his younger brother. The family penny pincher catering to the working poor, younglings, and others on a budget.
"Camillus": Wealthy Brother who didn't want the throne. Disagreed with the patriarch at least once (never used the Swenden(?) Swinden(?) Key)
Where did ...
New York Knife Co (after purchased in the 1930's).
Hammer Brand (after purchased with it's original parent co., NYKC, in the 1930's)
ULSER (Second Son in line for the throne before being murdered by his son, Old Timer?) (Remember: The RJR Prince Al knives were "Ulster Old Timer" knives)
Frontier*
IMPCO*
Kamp King*
And all the other family brands (I'm pretty sure there were more who's names I don't remember) fit in before they were murdered by King Schrade or on his instructions, or by jealous siblings, with or without King Schrade's permission?
(* Imperial's kids)
How long after acquiring the NYKC and Hammer Brand rights, did Schrade keep those names in production?
I think the Hammer Brand was made for a few years before being murdered because he was direct competition to Imperial, using the same shell construction methods even before being Vanquished/ Conquered/Annexed/Swallowed/Betrayed by the Schrade Empire.
Was NYKC murdered right away beause he was direct competition (possibly with a superior product?) to King/Patriarch, Schrade?
What was the heirarchy from top to bottom of the Schrade family of brands?
