Stockman packs three blades in a convenient but very practical pocket knife. The clip and sheepfoot blade sit on the pocket end while the spey blade sits on the cap end. The clip blade is commonly used as a multi-purpose blade and preferred for detail work. The sheepfoot blade allows for added strength at the point making it great for carving and achieving a clean cut. The spey blade is commonly used as an all-purpose utility blade. This knife is constructed with our chrome vanadium (CV) steel. Some knife lovers will settle for nothing less than chrome vanadium blades, since this special formula of alloyed steel is the "original" CASE blade steel. CASE chrome vanadium blades are known for their edge-holding ability and easy resharpening. However, they are less resistant to rusting, pitting and discoloration than stainless steel.
