Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Taylor Brands LLC bought the Schrade brand in the '90's and now all the Schrade, Old-Timer, and Uncle Henry knives are made in China. The knives are still of great quality, but I must say the USA blades sharpened easier and held an edge longer. The brass on the China knives also tarnish quickly if you don't use it every few days.
Also, the original USA Uncle Henry had a lifetime "can't lose it" warranty, where they would replace your registered knife even if you lost it... for life. I bought my original "Smokey" in the mid-80's and carried it every day for more than 20-years. When I lost it on a hiking/camping trip a couple of years ago (let a friend borrow it and they left it laying in the woods somewhere), I tried to cash-in on my warranty, but Taylor Brands LLC wouldn't honor the original warranty. This is why I only gave 4-stars. The China knife is of good quality, but the warranty is now a standard, "limited-lifetime" warranty against defects only.
All in all, this is a quality knife, of a good balance, blade shape, and size for every-day use. I would recommend this knife to anyone! The one I replaced my lost one with has Buffalo Horn handle, and looks much better than the Rosewood, but they were only available through Smokey Mountain Knife Works as a limited-edition....
