Schrade Walden vintage MC1 Orange military paratrooper switchblade knife. This knife was made for the US government under contract by Schrade Walden into the 1960s. These knives also saw use by NASA and carried into space with astronauts as well as other government agencies. The knife measures 4.25 inches closed and 7 3/8 inches with blade open and it has steel liners & lanyard ring with nickel silver button & safety. The clip blade is opened automatically by pressing the button and the hook blade opens manually. Typically paratroopers deployed with the hook blade in the open position for quick emergency use. The clip blade is marked Schrade Walden NY USA STAINLESS and is 99% full with original factory finish and some scratches. The hook blade is basically unused. The orange jigged scales are in excellent condition with minimal shrinkage. The knife works great with the blade tip below the liners closed, good snap and fair lockup open with about 1/8" movement at the tip both ways. Rattles if shaken with the blade open as most do that have seen use over the years. Safety works. EX- condition.
