This is the ONLY Schrade folding guard we've ever seen in this size with black jigged scales and a lanyard ring in nearly 50 years. This is likely a One-of-a-kind Special Customer order knife. It measures 4.25 inches closed and 7.25 inches open with brass liners and steel bolsters and guards with nickel silver button, safety and lanyard ring. The clip blade is 98% full or better with light patina and some scattered pitting, but good overall and the tang is stamped SCHRADE WALDEN NY, USA. The scales (handles) are black synthetic jigged and likely Delrin and in very good condition with slight shrinkage. It works great with blade tip deep in the well closed, good snap and excellent lockup with about 1\/16\" movement at the tip open. Does not rattle if shaken with blade open except for guards. This knife will be in the upcoming book Antique American Switchblades 2 and will come with a laminated Certificate of Authenticity dated and signed by the author. Safety works. VG+ condition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apple Valley Knives","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029608132909,"sku":null,"price":1000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/6232\/7341\/files\/IMG_0176_6b70a52a-694b-4304-b287-32e2f4581d35.jpg?v=1777479102","url":"https:\/\/applevalleyknives.com\/products\/rare-schrade-walden-folding-guard-scout-w-lanyard-ring-vintage-automatic-knife","provider":"Apple Valley Knives","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
