CRAFTSMAN 9541 USA MADE POCKETKNIFE

Found and saved this little American made gem from the gutter on a walk to the corner store one day. Craftsman 9541 dual blade folding pocket knife; the main clip point blade has seen better days while the pen blade is in phenomenal shape. Both blades close with good snap and really make me appreciate these well-made classic American made knives 💚🇺🇸💚
Thanks for watching!

Great find! Lovely old jack knife! I am thinking it was Craftsman branded and made by Imperial.

@ericstarr9399 That sounds like the consensus, Thanks for watching and your comment I appreciate 🙏 it

Some of the old Craftsman knives are incredibly high quality.
Sears actually did the opposite of what Walmart is known for doing. They were willing to pay more to have the manufacturers they contracted with increase their quality. The early models are some of the highest quality folders to leave the Camillus factory.

@CNYKnifeNut Mannnnn things back then were made to LAST and that was the STANDARD. Now a days you have to pay a premium and /or have a keen shopping eye and not be willy nilly with your dollar, falling for false advertising or overpriced "high end" goods.
Wish companies could look at Sears and everything they did right as a company and take some notes 📝

Thank you for sharing. I have an almost identical knife, same yellow scales, crown logo, but with "Imperial" stamped on the blade.

@George_Lewis Seems like old sears and craftsman and Imperial all shook hands over the lunch table saying "Affordable quality ready knives for the working people now!," and bam! Years later I am blessed to be able find this lil feller in the gutter to be saved 🙏 🙌 ✨️
Thanks to them old timers building quality made pieces that survived until a guy from another time can save and appreciate the old soul knife.
If only blades could talk!
