Hey Willie, send me your snail mail address and I'll send you a Bush/Cheney '04 bumper sticker!
Sounds like a complete failure by top management. Let's see you add how much floorspace to your factory and then shut down. Wonder how Case Cutlery is doing? Bet they are getting by just fine. Reminds me I need to check out the latest knives they have for my collection.
30 years ago Schrade made good stuff. I still have an Uncle Henry that I got at a second hand shop 15 yrs ago, who knows how old it was when I got it. Great knife. Now they just make crap.
This is awful - Schrade made a great knife, and I go out of my way to buy them.
What am I supposed to buy for gifts now (yes, with a penny taped to them)? Knife suggestions anyone?
This article makes no sense. Terrible management, but everyone in town wanted to work there... 9/11 caused a drop in knife sales... An entire town being supported by a 250 employee shop... No raises in 3 years, but people begging for the jobs anyway. Everyone wants to WALK to work... Evil management docks employees who are late, even though they took a cab to work...
Sounds like a one-size-fits-all whine against business. I wonder what solutions these workers would have suggested. Better healthcare and more vacation I would imagine.
Just damn. I have an Old Timer 80T in my pocket right now.
Bummer. Some of their stuff is crap. Some of it (like my Uncle Henry Bear Paw -- all wood, brass and steel) is good.
Get 'em while you can!

Actually, their online store is offline...I wonder why!
$%^#@# *&^, #@*&(!!
Why, Willie. I'm hurt! I present a heartfelt offer to send you - at no charge, I might add - a collector's item coveted by many, and you respond (via FReepmail) with language normally reserved for Pat Leahy.
I just pray you don't have children to corrupt.
Thank you for questioning my sexual preferences, Willie (again via FReepmail). While I imagine you are looking for company, I'm afraid I'll have to pass. The Mrs. doesn't like me dating, even out of species.
