Schrade Old Timer Desert Ironwood Middleman SCT34OTW

The Old Timer Desert Ironwood Middleman is built for those who value tradition, reliability, and the kind of craftsmanship that doesn’t cut corners. This compact stockman carries the legacy of the Old Timer name with pride, offering a trusted blend of classic design and durable materials meant for real-world use.

At the heart of this pocket knife are three satin-finished blades—clip point, Sheepsfoot, and spey—all crafted from 7Cr17MoV high-carbon stainless steel. Each blade opens with a clean snap thanks to well-fitted nail nicks and holds an edge through everyday tasks, whether you're slicing, trimming, or making precise cuts. This steel’s corrosion resistance and toughness make it a solid choice for work in the field, shop, or around the homestead.

The handles are made from genuine desert ironwood, a dense, durable hardwood with rich grain and warm tones that stand out without being flashy. Paired with nickel silver bolsters, pins, and an inlaid Old Timer shield, the look is refined but not delicate. Brass liners give the frame added stability without adding weight. At 3.37 inches closed, the Middleman rides comfortably in your pocket and sits well in hand when it’s time to put it to work.

This knife isn’t just about looks—it’s built to last and made for those who use their gear, not just admire it. Whether you're replacing a decades-old favorite or picking up your first Old Timer, the Desert Ironwood Middleman brings utility, heritage, and rugged character in one dependable package.
