I recently found these little beauties. I have been wanting a Sharpfinger since my friend Terry in the Marines had one in his truck. I got one a couple of years ago and lost it this fall. I got all of these in the last 6 months except the yellow/creme one that was my Father-in-Law's that I got last year when he passed.

I have been carrying my son's single blade trapper every so often for a few years and I finally replaced mine along with a few others.

I hit the stores hard when Schrade closed it's doors and came up with some really good specimens.
Every now and then, in an obscure Mom & Pop store there is a Schrade or two to be found.
In one instance I found two 158OT Gut Hooks NIB.
I keep looking !
 
I also have a bunch of USA Schrades, and old Imperial Irish Schrades.

Still have 2 blanks from Schrade and one from Camillus to scale and sharpen.

Like Zeke said Keep looking :)
