Me too. Sorry about that.Sorry; I seem to have gone off on a tangent concerning knives that don't really qualify as "OLD" knives.

Ha ha; I guess I do, also. I was hatched in 1947.
Waynorth, thanks, you are a star, polaris even!QUOTE - ed_is_dead ;
Can any of you old knife aficionados shed any light on this maker for me? - QUOTE
H.C, and Superior come up separately as Companies from Germany!
What looks like Steel pins in Nickel bolsters on your knife is a common characteristic of older German knives. Sadly, I can find no other history! Nice knife; - how long?
I like the "wavy red Delrin" description Cal Is it sad that people would know what that actually meant? LoL Ironically I just opened this actual wavy red trapper about an hour agoLooks like the early 'wavy red' Delrin from here. They made molds for that type of 'jigging' from real bone jigged covers. In my opinion it made the nicest Delrin of any knife covers by anyone anywhere any time. Edit: Sorry; I seem to have gone off on a tangent concerning knives that don't really qualify as "OLD" knives.
I like to think of Schrade Walden's as being acceptable of "old"... it's almost been 50 years since they dropped the "Walden" and they are an important and iconic name in knife historytongueriver
Thank you for the thoughts, good info
I have been reading from the start of this most amazing thread, as I’m new here and just started. Being older than oneself was then considered an “old knife”, is that right ?
I have some goodies on the way that may qualify.
The bone versions are knice, as well.
