Perhaps I asked this before, and please bear with me, this will lead to cattle knife content. What is the difference between the 53 and 54 pattern? My understanding is that they were the same, but the 54 has half-stops and the 53 does not. I have a 531410 cattle baron before my eyes and non of the blades have half-stops. I also have a modified knife with a number of 531310 cattle rancher in front of me and all three blades DO have half-stops. Do Your 531310 cattle ranchers have half stops, or do I have a 53 blade inserted onto a 54 frame?
The Looking Glass Pearl is the 531410. The green micarta (obviously reworked) with a bail has a modified blade with number 531310 and all 3 blades have half-stops.
