Very recently, this “stockman” pattern or style of pocket knife, arrived in a group or lot of pocket knives that I bought. This pocket knife now becomes my most recent example to be posted under this topic or thread. I did NOT buy the group or lot of pocket knives to obtain this particular pocket knife. However, it did turn out to be a keeper. It did get added to my general, pocket knife accumulation. It is an Imperial (D E), three blades, one tang stamp, 4" closed, a long main blade pull, two springs, "stockman", pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, “Imperial (with the crown) (over) PROV. R.I.", with a vertical "USA" on the right. The shield says “D E” with an arrow through it. The handles or scales do have a mottled appearance, but NO damage. The main blade does NOT have a half stop. The main blade does have an OK opening snap. The main blade does NOT have a closing snap. The secondary blade does have a WEAK half stop. The secondary blade does have an OK opening snap. The secondary blade does have an OK closing snap. The third blade does have a WEAK half stop. The third blade does have a GOOD opening snap. The third blade does have a GOOD closing snap. Overall, this pocket knife is in VERY GOOD condition. This pocket knife did require a little bit of cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Gotta love those full blades, Skip. Amazing how much the tang grind looks like a "New Grind" Case.. Nice score..
