Vintage Sears Craftsman Stockman Knife – Ivory Synthetic Handles – 1970s USA-Made Three-Blade Pocket Knife

This handsome Sears Craftsman stockman knife dates to the 1970s and was made in the USA during a time when Craftsman tools represented the gold standard of American reliability. It features three polished blades—clip, spey, and sheepsfoot—the main blade stamped "Craftsman USA 95244," and a striking etch marked W.L.S. Craftsman Tools – 1927. The bolsters are polished nickel silver, and the handles are a creamy ivory synthetic with tight seams and a pinned Sears Craftsman shield.

This knife comes from the later era of USA-made Craftsman knives, many of which were manufactured by Schrade or Camillus under contract. Blades are full and unsharpened, with strong snap and clean action throughout.
