Howdy all! Since the traditional forum seems to have disappeared with a few others I used to look in on from time to time, and I haven't been able to use the search feature without getting some kind of error message, I thought I'd re-ask this question here.

Does anyone know what the difference is between these two patterns of traditional knives? I'm a bit confused. Is it a size issue? Just thought I'd ask.

Say, anyone know what happened to the traditional forum?

Sincerely,
Anthony
 
Both are two bladed small sized knives. The difference is all in the blade shapes and handle configurations. The Peanut has both blades on the same end and has a Peanut shaped handle. Usually there is a Pen and a Clip Point blade. On a Butterbean, there are two blades at opposing ends of the knife (usually two spears or a spear and a pen). The handle is shaped like the larger Canoe configuration.
Hope this helps,
Matt
