Hey all, I just got back from a knife & gun show here in Amarillo and I only had the funds for 1 knife

It is a 1965-1969 USA red bone small stockman. The number is simply 087PE. Is this normal to not give a handle material number? Also, does the PE stand for pen? Thank you, Kelley

Thanks Johnnie, I went back to that particular knife 3 times. I guess it was just callin me!

Thank you Gary and stockman, I knew the PE had something to do with the blades, but I wasn't exactly for sure what. The 2nd letter of the type of blade is something I will definately remember. Thank you all, Kelley
