This Craftsman USA 9507 peanut-style jack knife is a fine example of the reliable, no-nonsense quality that defined American hardware-store knives in the mid-20th century. Made by Schrade before the Imperial merger, it offers the compact utility of a two-blade design, housed in attractive jigged brown Delrin handles. Included with this piece is the original three-part packaging: clear storage tube, orange guarantee insert, and original Sears Craftsman box labeled with a $1.69 price tag—making this a true time capsule from the golden age of American pocketknives.
