Couldn't load pickup availability
A classic American-made Imperial traditional pocket knife featuring two folding blades, yellow synthetic handle scales, metal bolsters and a decorative shield.
The main blade carries the vintage crowned Imperial / PROV. R.I. / USA tang stamp associated with Imperial's Providence, Rhode Island production. Collector references broadly date this version of the Imperial stamp to the 1956–1988 period.
This is an honest vintage example that shows decades of use and age, giving it plenty of character. Both blades open using traditional nail nicks.
Features: Imperial; Providence, Rhode Island, USA; two-blade traditional pocket knife; yellow synthetic handle scales; metal bolsters; decorative shield; nail-nick opening; slipjoint construction; vintage pre-owned.
Measures 2.5" closed, good snap, no wobble.
Fair to Good Vintage Pre-Owned Condition
This knife shows substantial age and previous use. Both blades exhibit patina, oxidation, surface pitting, scratches and sharpening/use wear. The main blade shows noticeable blade loss from previous sharpening and use.
The yellow handle scales show discoloration and normal age-related wear but appear complete in the photographs. The bolsters, liners and hardware display oxidation, scratches and general handling wear consistent with an older working pocket knife.
No attempt has been made to restore or heavily polish the knife.
Please review all photographs carefully for exact condition. The knife pictured is the actual knife you will receive.
