Schrade Hunter

Ranch Roper's knives reminded me I had a knife like his folder. Sure enough, a USA made faux stag folding hunter.

I think it came from Ebay. I really like the folding hunter, especially in a sheath.

Here are some photographs. I tried a new lens device for my Iphone, it has 2 macros plus wide angle and fish eye.

It's really a nice knife. It needs to be cleaned up. It came with a sheath too.

Very nice Schrade blade.
And I especially like the photo with the "USA" showing on the blade. The light to dark (L-->R) shadows look really cool.

Cool, mine is the 127UH. "UH" stands for Uncle Henry, and brand name they hung on a series of knives including the bowies. That's a beauty DD.

Love that Old Timer. I just dug my wool knickers out for the winter and found my lower case kabar in the pocket.

I love it when you find one of your long lost knives. Somewhere either on my property, pair of jeans, or floorboard of my pickup or SXS, one of my favorite folders is missing. Haven't seen it for a couple of months. Its a pretty nice SOG, with the belt clip adjuster. Its what I USED to use while deer hunting. Its a good field dress folder, and pretty good skinning blade.

I bought a Schrade-Henry 172UH in 1971 for my 16th birthday. Paid $16 for it new and carried it on many backpacking trips while in high school. Got married in 1976 and forgot all about the knife. I was at my father’s house one day about 10 years ago and found my knife in his laundry room. After 30+ years my knife was back. The blade has no nicks or dents only a little dirt and patina. Only sharpened once in its life. I keep it in the original sheath for one of my grandkids someday.

I have a Schrade Old Timer, it spent several years riding on the dashboard of my work truck.

I have an old Schrade Hunter of my own, a Gift from the Kaneohe Bay Rod and Gun Club for my time as the Hunting Chairman and Vice President. A Schrade Old Timer.
Not in too bad of shape for a 1985 vintage knife. I love the way this thing lays along your finger when you are skinning.

Unless you have been there, you'd be surprised at the amount and variety of hunting available in Hawaii. Birds, Pigs, Wild Goat... mongoose. :roll:
