I know most sears knives were made by either schrade or cammilus, but this little guy looks like neither. It is very smooth operating, I picked it up in a trade today, I'm thinking buck, it looks like a small buck duke or something like that, let's hear your thoughts.

Hi Muskrat Man...
I have a couple of these small lockbacks from Sears, also. Picked
them up a few years back, new. Mine are @ 3 1/4" closed, with a
2" stainless blade. Same shape, wood handles and brass bolsters.
Mine are stamped "Craftsman USA" with a number 95231 below the
"USA". Some online research I did a few months back indicated that
mine may have been made by Schrade.
I also have two small stockman patterns and two larger stockman
patterns that are made identically...wood handles, brass bolsters,
stainless blades, etc., as well as two medium single-blade lockbacks,
and two large single-blade lockbacks, that really resemble either
Buck or Camillus knives. I've been told by a few on this forum that my
stockman patterns, at least, were most probably made by Schrade
for Sears under the "Craftsman" label. The lockbacks may have been as well...?
They are all really nice, well-made, solid knives.
It's

Hi Jabber,
according to research that I have seen done, The medium and large lockblades were made by cammilus, the stock knives were most likely cammilus aswell, although there is a chance they are of schrade make.
