Kabar T29, T49, or T75?

[drwfishesman]

Any knowledgeable folks out there can explain the difference between Kabar T29, T49, or T75 Folding fishing knife? I know there is a size difference, but without any other markings, is there a way to tell? Thanks for any help.

You would likely have better luck getting an answer in the traditional folders sub forum.

Are you sure there is a size difference? The pictures I’ve found all look the same. The model number if present at all, is just crudely stamped into the celluloid handle scale.

I've been told (not confirmed) that the T75 is 0.5" shorter than the T29. There's also the Kabar 1128 that is similar. It's all very confusing.

By looking at lists on Worthpoint I found:
1128 = around 5"
T75 = 4.5"
T49 = 4.25"
T29 = 5"

An 1128 for reference, at 4 15/16" closed.
