Not too recently, this "fishtail" pattern or style of pocket knife, arrived in a group or lot of pocket knives that I bought. It now becomes my latest 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. But, it did turn out to be a keeper. It did get added to my general, pocket knife accumulation. It is a HAMMER BRAND, one blade, one tang stamp, 2" closed (not including the bail), long blade pull, "fishtail", pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says "HAMMER (over) BRAND (with the flexed arm & hammer) and a vertical USA on the side. The blade does NOT have a half stop. The blade does have a GOOD opening snap. The blade does have a GOOD closing snap. This pocket knife is in GOOD+ condition. I took some pictures, here it is.
