I can't even begin to set their 4 1/2 over my knee, but their number 5 was really weak springed and seemed much lighter and cheaper and lighter built overall. Now this was my opinion from looking at one ten or twelve years ago, I haven't looked at or handled one since, so I my be misremembering some details but I know I wasn't impressed with them.

I ditched mine when I found out that they were supposed to be a limited number, and they were supposed to be stamped with that number. Neither of mine were stamped, and the box was also supposed to have the number on it.

I know he told me the first traps he will manufacture will be the #11's and the #3 longsprings.
