The Imperial Knife Company eventually grew to become the largest knife manufacturer in the United States. They were a high-volume manufacturer with a knack of creating efficiencies in the manufacturing process to create good quality products at affordable prices. When military knives became high demand products for WWII, Imperial merged with Ulster & focused on manufacturing military knives. Albert M. & Henry Baer were heavily involved in the consolidation & the Baers would eventually buy & merge Imperial with Schrade & others. The Imperial brand name continued to exist until 1988, when they were discontinued and replaced by the Schrade name.” If you have specific questions or want to see additional pictures prior to purchasing this item, please contact us.
