Interesting idea on different caps needing different bolts. This newbie can't say definitively as to Knight bolts, but from manufacturing and inventory standpoints having a single bolt style makes sense. Might be worth looking at the ends to see whether they differ. My BH bolt (#11 caps) has a little concave point in the center. Might just have an extra bolt.....
