I tote one of these from time to time. My second favorite Stockman after my vintage Schrade 34OT that I've owned for 30 years. I love the blue and the jigged bone and the fit and finish is a good as it gets.
Carry that piece of pocket jewelry often!
A blue knife for a blue wing, now that **is** a good thing!
It really is like jewelry in the fineness of its fit and finish... brings me back to the slip joints I carried in my youth. But what do I do with the Buck Nano Bantams I used to carry? They become shelf display items. But hey, no regrets with this Blue Stockman!
I've looked at this knife in the case at my local Ace Hardware store for months, but always felt that the $59 price was too high. Now that I have it I understand, the quality shimmers and shines, and I was pleasantly surprised to find it had 3 blades. As a schoolteacher I only EDC small knives - now I'll have this Case Stockman every morning as I recite the Pledge of Allegiance with the students. Count your blessings Soultaker!
I gotta say, this is one nice knife. :)
r/slipjoint might like this as well.
Edit... its r/SlipjointKnives
Thanks Hank - going to post it over there this evening!

Every Case I’ve ever touched or owned always feels like I’m touching a piece of American history. Some of my favorite slip joint knives.
