At least I think it's unusual. I've never seen one. How about you guys.
Tang stamp:
Imperial
PROV R I
with vertical USA down right side
crown above ia.
closed length is only 2 1/4 inches.
Appears to be from late 50s early 60s.
Any more info?

Kind of a rare Imperial.I own 3 of them and they are all different.Two of them have a nail file secondary blade and they are both different.One is the traditional nail file with the two grooves on one side for filing the edges of your nails and the other looks like a pen blade with serrations.
The third one has a pen blade in lieu of a file.Also have a smaller one(two blades)that has a folding ball point pen for a secondary blade and another two blade with just a master and a file secondary.
Kind of unusual to see a multiblade this size.
