Small Lockbacks

[mrszeontestpilot]

Just wondering if anyone has any pictures of small traditional lockbacks (blades under 3 inches). GEC, Queen, Boker, etc.

Schrade 5OT. No longer made (at least like this).

Gerber Silver Knights. The two blade model is not a lockback; the others are. Not currently in production, but many still available:

Case Mini Copperlocks like this one:

Ka-Bar Ka-Loks like this but not currently in production, but can be found in good condition.

Al Mar Hawk, Osprey and Falcon are very nice. I don't currently have one so no picture. Very sweet little knives. Readily available.

Take a look at A.G. Russells website; he has some small lockbacks in his range.

Thats a nice knife S-K!, how can one go wrong with Camillus?

Thanks Duncan. This is a Graham Clayton knife circa early 1990s.

I don't own any and don't have any pictures, but somebody fer'ser needs to post shots of the Buck 501 and Buck 55. Would also be good to see the many variants of the 5OT (I only have the one).

Thank you as always for posting your lovely knives S-K, please...could you tell me something about that lovely looking Graham Clayton knife, it almost look as though its a custom Buck!

My favorite small lockback is the AG Russell Barlow on top.
The Case Maco is barely over 3".
The 2 5OT's speak for themselves. The green one hangs out in my toolbox.
I have a nice Puma that may qualify as well.

I don't want to stray far off the original track. Back in the 1980s-90s Graham Clayton was one of the few remaining traditional Sheffield culters. He made both fixed blade and folding knives. He also made knives under the Digby's trademark. This is a pic of the blade spine.

Rapid River. Its 3" long with a 2 1/8" blade.

I have the matching large folder and fixed blade too. Great stuff from Michigan

I have a few more. I'll try and rustle up some images before the thread grows stale.
I think someone posted a similar Camillus in another thread not long ago.

That Russell Barlow locker is a sleek looking and compact individual. Do you know if they are still available?

Thanks, Will
