Slimline trapper with back lock ?

There are a lot of "banana trappers" with a lockback. Before they closed, Camillus made a Remington R1253

There's also the Queen made Winchester "black box" 1927 from around the same time.

And before they closed, Canal Street Cutlery made a similar knife called the "pinch". They used their own branding as well as Ka-Bar or Moore Maker.

You should be able to find them all on the secondary market. There are of course, a lot of other lockbacks similar in size.
 
this moore maker is excellent knife!Maybe Ill try to find some of these on secondary market,as I find this type of knife most useful for my needs.
 
The Remington models can be found at reasonable prices on bidding sites. Just beware some people call them "rare" and Jack up the price.
 
I have both of the first two knives. They both come with different covers, I have the Winchester in stag. I have them both and use them. They are a "pocket-full" at 5" and possibly not-legal, with a 4" blade depending upon where you live. The Remington with delrin covers can be as low as $50 NIB with all papers at gun shows and it's lighter. I saw one at a show for $95 and asked the guy why so much, he said "room to trade." The Remington can come with bone covers and also with a sterling silver bullet. The Remington has a different lock back mechanism from most knives; made/patented by Camillus, lock invented by Phil Gibbs, now of AGRussell and a forum member. It has a spring between the cover and liner. Makes it real easy to open, you can readily flick it open...traditional tactical :)
 
Unfortunately where i live i have to pay premium and there's no knife shows,have to buy it online without handling
 
Rough Rider makes a single blade linerlock trapper with thumbstud. Also Bear and Sons makes a single blade trapper with thumbhole and lockback. They call it a Cowhand folder.

I forgot about the Winchester and Remington being so big. I think the Canal Street Cutlery "pinch" is around 3.75" closed
