Those are indeed hard to find. They have a very ingenious locking design that is completely different from rear locking designs. Due to their rarity I just managed a single green bone and a stag example for my collection. Congratulations on your procurement of these fine examples.

Thank you for your kind replies. Been picking these up over the years. I really like this locking mechanism. In German the lock is called "Klappbügel-Verschluss" and the knife is a "Klappbügel-Messer" which translates to “folding bracket closure knife”

Crazy low numbers. I think the Bull brand was a version where the logo was printed not etched on.

TOPDOG, I don’t own any Bulldogs and really don’t know anything about them. Your knives are beautiful! Are those handles celluloid or some other material.
