Here's a few until I can dig up some more, seems like I have more smaller traditionals than probably any other type of knives in my collection.

Sorry, my knife didn't fit the parameters and I can't figure out how to delete the post.

Here's the Case Tiny Trapper I carry almost everyday to work. It's almost the only Traditional knife I have found which completely meets the size limit of a 4 1/2" opened length:

That's a nice one too!!! Love the color of the bone on it.

Trand, that's a single blade trapper? I thought I had seen one before; maybe you had posted it before.

Correct Ed. Its a 61154 with Caribbean Blue Bone. I'm pretty sure I posted it before but I don't recall seeing it very much elsewhere.

The top two are just a tad too big at 3 1/8" but the rest all fit into the parameter. All 1940-69 era.

A #33 at 2 5/8" - A wonderful little XX era knife.

Swanworks 2 3/4"

Grant,

What is that one?

Edit: Never mind, I missed the text. Can you tell us more about it? It looks pretty neat.

 

[Sonnemann]

Here are all of mine that made the cut, so to speak. It'll be nice to add a GEC in this size range in the next few weeks.

 

[smiling-knife]

Love the little knives everyone. This is 1950s Wostenholm mop penknife.

bwperdue,
That little Swanworks 2 3/4" was a rare find on the online auction. I paid very little for it. I just liked the look of it even if it didn't function properly. I was amazed to find it has beautiful halfstops and snaps like it was brand new. The bolsters are iron. I suspect it is from the turn of the century but that's all I know. Oh, the wood looks like Tulip wood.

 

[Jersey Devil]

I finally have something to add to this thread! Got this sweet little Cattaraugus pen knife in the mail last night. This is going to be my official watch pocket knife from now on!
