MB: CAMILLUS/<LINE>/NEW YORK/U.S.A. MB Etch:BOY SCOUTS<TF>OF AMERICA, 2.63" droppoint
stainless steel. MB(P): 902. Scalloped, second blade(M): PATENTED. BSA #1881. 1992-1994.
Hope this helps

The 901B was in the 1992 catalog but by 1996 it had disappeared from the catalog. I think one can extrapolate that they were not popular and there are not a Billy blue ton of them floating around out there.
