Don't know if that is a Crandall frame or not but It looks like it could be a Cattaruagus to me. Can't say I like the clip master. Same funky stamp as the previously posted Crandall fake. Punch blade is a Harrison patent so unsure about that too. Would be good to see it up close.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Sadly there are a lot more Crandall fakes out there than authentic ones. Crandall used a wide variety of different stamps, at least 10 different ones. Here are a couple of Crandalls that I consider genuine.
