younggun, I added further description to the post.
Blade length is 2-5/8in, it is only set up for tip down, right hand carry.
I Believe Buck made a few Tom Mayo collaborations, The Buck Mayo TNT model 172, titanium handled folder with 3-1/8" blade, This titanium handled folder the Buck Mayo Waimea model 171, and there was also a small fixed blade called the Buck Mayo Kaala.
Boy, I feel like an old timer now, recounting history.

I dunno the 173 Northshore model under the Buck/Tom Mayo series was a fierce competitor against the TNT model.It may be aluminum instead of titanium,a liner lock,and 420HC instead but for Taiwan made...it was a darned good knife!
