VL&A was a Chicago-based premium supplier of sporting goods, much like their competitors Abercrombie & Fitch. These three pages from a 1934 VL&A catalog show no Scagels, but they do show knives by Remington, Marble’s, Wade & Butcher, Press Button Knife Co., Henckels, an unidentified Sheffield maker, a Swiss Army Knife, and “Kauhavan” Finnish knives.
