Ok...ya got me with the #5 there Bob. From what I understand(and temporarily forgot)is that the serial numbering is for each type of handle material. I have no idea how many of these he has made totally. I ain't the official Bose historian...I just takes pitchez and postses 'em and says what the boss says to me.

Bob,

I can't speak in generalities but I know for sure that my 4" BP (or should I say 4 1/8" BP) made by Tony is not based on the Millennium Trapper but on a scaled down version of his 4.5" BP. (I know this because he told me so. )

I was told the 4.5 was based on a Remington 1123, which had a flush joint. But I'm no expert either.

Everything you guys is sayin' I believe is true... I believe there are a number of variations on the theme .. Here is another full size back pocket with a blade like the 1123...

Just measured Tony's #5 in stag. It is exactly 4" closed.

Men, there is no official BackPocket knife. I call it that because I carry it in my back pocket. I have carried a larger knife there for over 40 years, lncluding factory folding hunters, bullets, dogsheads, daddy barlows as well as many variations of BPs I have made. I have made these with many different blades in them. One thing they have in common is they will all cut stuff.

Is a daddy barlow just is a larger version? I expect someone out there, (and you know who you are), has a nice picture of a daddy barlow.

Kerry,

It's OK. It's good that Tony ended it before people started hitting each other with their (knife) purses.
