Other than the Kershaw Crosslock, is anyone aware of any other two-bladed lockback or liner lock traditional looking knife in the 4" closed length or under range?
 
There is a Mooremaker knife that was made by Cammilus that had two locking blades. I believe the knife was also sold under Cammilus mark as well.
 
I had a Camillus large trapper that was a double lockback. Don't ask me how or where I lost a knife that big.
 
Moore Maker MM-3206DBL or Remington Bullet R1123L LTD ED from 2011 are what you're looking for if you want a large trapper frame. I got these pics from a Google search.

The Camillus model is 716 pattern. They made it as a Yello Jaket, delrin stag, stag, western knives version, moore maker, and probably Remington. I have 4 of them and pick them up when they are priced low. The steel is 440C and is awesome. I carried a yello jaket version in my possible bag hunting deer for many many years.
 
I don't know if they still list it, but Boker has a really nice big two blade folding hunter with either stag or rosewood scales that both blades had locks. Was about the size of the two blade Case folding hunter.

I have one of those 716 Yello-jaket knives too. It has been my go to hunting knife for over 20 years now. It has disassembled 2 moose and 21 deer so far. (Most of my moose hunting was done before I got this knife - done because I moved away from moose country. During my moose hunting days, and Uncle Henry Bear Paw LB7 was the hunting knife).

This is a great knife. The last moose I got, north of Terrace, BC, was in a very difficult place to pack out of. I got a friend to help me get it out with a 6 wheel atv. He was mighty impressed with the way that knife worked, so I got him one. This of course, was back in the days when Camillus was still making their great products.
 
Moore Maker had a bunch of them back in time, some are still available and some you can find on the big auction site. They had two different sized trappers with the delrin handles and both of the blades lock. They also had two trappers with the bone handles and the clip blade had a lock. And the 5206 is still available, it is a large trapper and the clip blade locks.
 
I don't know the pattern number but Camillus made a double Lockback copperhead style as well.

Mr. Chips-I'm a real fan. The one I carried, like yours, not only field dressed, but broke down about a dozen deer. Their 440c was great. I do believe I can get an edge on my camillus easier than my gecs. Both of my boys will get one when they start hunting deer. I've been saving them for a while. Investigation of the 716 Y is what got me to join bladeforums many moons ago. My discovery of gec brought me back, and I found a welcoming porch.

I believe the Remingtons (reproductions) are Camillus as well. My Remington is not 440C, per Phil Gibbs who used to work for Camillus, the earlier Remingtons were 440B, later ones 440A. Mine takes a good edge and holds it, so I am happy :)
 
I have a Browning, Japanese, jack knife. The main blade is clip point with a back lock. The secondary is spey, slip joint.
