  • Ellenville Knife Factory Cuts 75 Jobs
    April 06, 2002 Ellenville knife factory cuts 75 jobs By Paul Brooks Times Herald-Record [email protected] Ellenville – Fallout from Sept. 11 has forced knife manufacturer Imperial Schrade to lay off 75 workers here, but the company itself is in no jeopardy, an executive said yesterday. "People giving gifts no longer use knives," James Economos, executive vice president of the privately owned company, said yesterday. For example, companies would give employees the knives as a gift in a sales-incentive program. That type of business was a significant part of Schrade's market prior to the terrorist attacks, amounting to a few million dollars annually, he said. "After Sept. 11, that has just evaporated." The layoffs will bring the company in line with the size of the market today, Economos said, noting that the overall retail market is weak. Imperial Schrade will still employ just over 500 people in Ellenville, he said. The company also laid off 10-20 employees at its factory in Ireland. Despite rumors, the layoffs have no connection to the company's relationship with retail giant Wal-Mart. Schrade is the strongest manufacturer in its category for Wal-mart, Economos said. In Ellenville, the job cuts began this week and will continue through the early part of next week. They include some voluntary layoffs and retirements and are across the board, including management. Economos would not say whether those laid off were given severance packages or the like. "We do this with a heavy heart," Economos said. "It has been a decade since we had to do something like this." Brian McIntosh sat in the 209 Diner in Ellenville yesterday contemplating what his source of income would be after next Friday, when he receives his last paycheck from Schrade.

  • ABOUT SOG When We Started 33 Years Ago with the S1 Bowie, Our Philosophy Was to Build the Best Situation-Ready Gear for Professionals and Everyday Users
    WORKBOOK SPRING 2020 ABOUT SOG When we started 33 years ago with the S1 Bowie, our philosophy was to build the best situation-ready gear for professionals and everyday users. Inspired by the knives carried by the Vietnam-era Special Forces unit, MACV-SOG, the S1 drew its inspiration from the people who carried it. When it hit the market in 1986, it sold out. That’s when we knew we had to keep going. We followed it up with knives like the SCUBA-DEMO and Trident fixed blades, designed for the same elite military users we drew inspiration from. We didn’t stop there, and we set our sights on bringing the same quality of tools to more users. We went into folding knives, then multi-tools, illumination, and packs. And we’re still looking for opportunities, and always aiming to create the best gear possible for whatever situation you may encounter. Sometimes that situation is realizing you need to strip some wires. Other times it means prepping a campsite in dark. And yet other times it means cutting away clothing in an emergency situation. The world throws a lot of curveballs every day and it’s not going to wait for us to be ready. Preparation, planning, and anticipation are what we arm ourselves with each day. It’s what guides our designs, to make the gear that enables you to tackle anything life throws your way. A lot may have changed since the 80’s. But our philosophy hasn’t. Stay ready. 2020 WORKBOOK MULTI- TOOLS SOG Multi-tools embody our drive to make gear that allows users to be well equipped with the right tools for the job.

  • Best Factory Knives of Blade's First 40 Years
    BEST FACTORY KNIVES OF BLADE’S FIRST 40 YEARS Table of Contents Chapter 1 Best Factory Knives 1973-1988 Chapter 2 Best Factory Knives 1989-2000 Chapter 3 Best Factory Knives 2001-2012 Chapter 1 Best Factory Knives 1973-1988 They may have been your father’s knives or your grandfather’s knives—they may even be your knives. To help celebrate its 40th anniversary, BLADE released a three-part series recognizing the top 40 factory knives over that span (1973-2013). The first chapter pinpoints the top factory knives from 1973-88. We compiled a list of some top factory knives over that stretch and submitted them to a panel of veteran knife observers and asked them to select their top five to 10—or however many they felt comfortable choosing. Though “top factory knives” can be subjective, we determined a top factory knife is one that excelled in terms of setting a standard that other companies attempted to emulate, and/or excelled in quality of craftsmanship, originality and creativity—or both. We no doubt inadvertently omitted knives that should be included. As a result, we asked our panel members to add those and rank them in their lists, too. The panel members: knife writers James Morgan Ayres, BLADE field editor Kim Breed, Durwood Hollis, Blade Magazine Cutlery Hall-Of-Fame member Bernard Levine and Mac Overton; Pete Cohan, former curator of the National Knife Museum; writer/photographer Terrill Hoffman; Roy Huntington, editor of American Handgunner Magazine; and Rick Thronburg of William Henry. Some of the knives ranked herein were made before 1973.
