Cleaning out the 400 square foot basement and closets. Thanks to those of you checking back on my auctions and bidding on my stuff! [Sidenote: so far I have listed about 1/1000 of the wonderful things I have, so check back often. It takes me forever to list items because I like to take plenty of pics and post detailed information. At this rate I will be done in 2010]. Presenting the beautiful vintage Schrade-Walden "Utility Hunter" fixed-blade knife. Comes with an original vintage sheath hallmarked "Stern San Jose." IMHO that is a pretty rare sheath. Back in the 1950s when this was made, the knife itself was often mistaken for and called a "pilot's survival knife." Out of the sheath it does have a military look to it. But it was NOT military. This Schrade Walden was first sold to the public in 1959. Back then it sold for $1.60, which is $14 in today's dollars. Quite a deal considering the quality of the knife. The target customers were weekend hunters, scouts, fishermen, campers and outdoorsmen. Knife has a leather handle and quality carbon steel blade, both in good condition. Blade has a sharp edge without nicks. Has red spacers in the leather handle and an aluminum pommel pinned in place. Blade guard is aluminum. Although many of these knives are damaged, this one is in good condition because it spent many years in a garage
