  Back when Schrade had just closed… And the name was bought not long after by Taylor.. I was busy running around, trying to find these knives at pawnshops hardware stores( my dad cleaned out the hardware store spent just over $2000 on the entire stock… but that’s another story) .. Anyways, I was not in a hurry. I drove over and around west of Atlanta out to Alabama on my route of elevator maintenance…. This was end of the day and I was driving back home.. pawnshop I never stopped at… hole in the wall.. Anyways… I was just talking with owner.. I didnt see anything worth while in the case.. But he told me he might have something I might be interested in… he went out to his car n returned with a sack of schrade schrade Walden hunters … one was well used others new condition . 7 or 8 . Some had two blades I think two had liner locks . One new one had custom stag handles ( nicely done) . Pawn owner said his friend just wanted to get rid of them. I tried to hide my excitement .. he gave me a give away deal .. I think 20 or 25 apiece . I think he just wanted this favor over with . One of my once n a life time deals … I had three others but not knife related. If u don’t go fishing u don’t catch any thing.

  I’ve bought several new Case knives here lately and seeing everyone’s knives and hearing their complaints, I just expect them to be off and I get happy when they ain’t. I buy too many off of eBay so I never see them till they show up in the mailbox. Most of what I’ve gotten have been pretty good. I like that trapper. Wish it came to you better shape. That culpepper is sweet! It’s a pretty knife! I have one but I can’t think of what type of scales it has. I’ve packed it several times. They are good knives!

  I'm glad to hear that you're finding some good Cases. I never have been much of an eBay shopper. I don't have anything against it, I just never have done it. There seems to be some pretty good deals on there if you're willing to hunt them down. But, that trapper will be a good user. I've got it sharpened and I'm not worried about it getting some dings and scratches. Thanks for watching, brother.😃👍🏻

  I hate to say it, but my 15 dollar rough ryder denim canoe from Amazon is much better in fit and finish than 75 dollar to 100 dollar Cases I own. Plus they have lots of cool new styles and materials all the time which you can try out and collect affordably. My RR glow in the dark half hawk is so much nicer than my Case sod busters. I used to think at least Case knives are an investment and will go up in value so it justifies the price. Outside of vintage ones, I am not so sure of that anymore. I am afraid newer ones aren't good as users or as collector items. Things seemed to have gotten better around 2020, then quality control diminished again. I have gotten bad ones in the mail. Would never get one sight unseen, and my local shop has slowly ended up having only old stock flawed ones with gaps blade rub etc. They have been gone through and not bought, and they stopped buying new ones feeling that nobody buys them anymore and they are no longer in demand. Truth is we picked the bones. Just my opinion, but we vote with our purchases.

  I have several RR's from years ago that I really like. There are some new ones that are pretty nice but I just don't like that giant "R" on the bolster. Some of their special collections that don't have that on them have caught my eye but they're getting up around $40. I've recently gotten some very good deals on Bear and Son and USA made Kershaws. Gonna be looking for more of them!
