My Franklin is 24 1/4". Jim may know something I don't but all the Franklin's I've seen were 24 1/4".

Jack, you are absolutely right....Dad made only one 25" for Rugg who immediately took it off and replaced the scale back to our standard. All Franklin steels are 24 1/4 except for that one experiment for Hal Rugg....
