I have two of those. One is a Schrade USA Sharpfinger exactly like that. The other is a Rigid USA that is the same design but with stainless blade, black handle scales and black sheath.


If you got the Rigid before 2005 Schrade made if not Bear and Son.

You bet. I've got one of the older USA made models too, from the 1970s. Same sheath.

Great minds and all that whistle

Friend who's even more "crafty" than I was here a coupla months ago. Saw the knife sitting on my old desk in the chewed up sheath. Yes, honest to goodness one of our dogs "ate" it, like it was homework. Probably back in '05 or so, so it's been a desk knife since. Having seen the sheath like that he demanded to take tracings of it and the knife and made me a new sheath. Which, thanks to the reminder here, I can see needs to be greased.

I carried that thing when doing stream work in the 90s in the woods of NW Cali. Was told by a campus cop on the University there it wasn't allowed to be carried, even on the public streets that ran through campus, because the fixed blade was too long. It meets CA regs, even for being under a shirt tail, but the University system has (had?) their own rules. I told him not to push the issue or I would have every steak knife removed from every dorm room, and the cafeteria if fixed blades over 2.5" were not allowed "on campus" . He just asked me to leave it in the car while I attended some meeting or something I was on campus for that evening.

Oh, I forgot, I've got the black plastic crappier version in the door pocket of the truck. Made in Ireland as I recall, in the late 90's???

Nah, probably a greasy lens on the 6 year old cell phone.

None of that 24mb Samsung camera scheidt for this boomer.

Between that and the crappy LED bulb in the overhead light, I'm surprised we can make out what it is!

Ha, little rubbing alcohol clean that lens up.

Nice sheath and nice friend. Little more substantial than the original.

The Ireland one is probably an Imperial brand also owned by Schrade.

Frigging rent a cops.

Not even a rent-a-cop.

They are honest to goodness State authorized, power of arrest, and all that stuff coppers. At least I was told they were then.

We had the rent a cop types in HS though, before they started stationing actual officers in schools.

It's a Model 21 Little Game and a grand knife it is. Congrats.



To be truthful I prefer this one, a bit more length, larger handle, and more useful...and will reach the bottom of a jar of olives.

Model 26...with a truly gorgeous piece of steel.

I made the lighter sheath so that it is easier to carry in my pocket...I am not generally much on carrying on my belt as they annoy the crap out of me.

Sorry guys, I use a flip phone and don't do pics. Axis has some relatively straight runs.
