The 440c blades will have a T-latch and the 154cm blades will have a spring latch.
It has been my observation that the spring latch ones are more in demand.
Personally, I like the finish on the handles of the older 42's (t-latch)more than the newer ones (spring latch).

Yeah I have a 440c with a spring latch as well. Can't carry it since I live in California. So it just sits in the case. I'd say the 440c version is slightly rarer and more popular among collectors. But the 42 in general is very collectable and is always a quick seller.
