Slip joint knives with half-stop, most common makers

[HFinn]

Regarding this thread: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1213758-Your-opinion-of-half-stops-on-slip-joints

I would like to know which knives by most common makers (particularly Case, but also Queen, Rough Rider, Gec and others) have half stops in their main blades (maybe also in other blades too). I personally like this feature and a list of those would help also others in choosing the right product.

My Laquoile R. David knife has, by the way, kind of half stop. Sort of, not quite but almost. There is a kind of soft half stop.

My GEC model 73 has a half stop. It is a single blade variation if that makes a difference.

Here's an unofficial list of GECs with half stops, without half stops, and those with both.

Thank you! How about Case and Queen?

I'm not sure if anyone else put a list together for those. I know I don't have enough of them to start one. GEC is the newest company starting in 2006 so I was able to get examples of many of their patterns. They're also popular so others were able to provide input for those I didn't have. GEC and Queen are much older companies... For those, you might best ask for feedback on a specific pattern rather than a list.

Allright then. Does anyone know about these specific Case knives if they have half-stops:

- Medium Stockman
- Small Texas Jack
- Mini Copperhead
- Sway Back Jack

I also went to wrcase and searched on half stops.

The Case sway back jack has half stops. The Small Texas Jack does not.

Mini Copperhead? Those old threads suggest it might have.

 

[Will Power]

Mini Copperhead does NOT. Single-spring twin bladed knives are generally cam type.

Medium Stockmans I have from CASE no.
