Day 5.  Old Timer trapper.  This is a post sale knife, so the quality is just not there.

This is my last actual trapper pattern knife.  I'll continue with a few other folders I have and then start back through.

This challenge for myself has gotten me to sharpen and where some of these knives that I rarely carry, so that's a good thing!

I love the trapper design....that is why I have several. It is kinda the flagship knife of Case Knives...a lot of interesting materials and logos you can get in that pattern.

When I was in New Mexico last year, I was in line at a cafe and the guy in front of me had a Trapper in yellow delrin in a open top leather sheath. I liked it a lot so I made this one.




I think I took the picture with my Case Copperhead in it, but I designed it for my Trapper.

I don't know how I missed this!  The Trapper is my all time favorite pattern.  This thread reminds me to get mine out for an inventory pic :D

Day 6 - not exactly a trapper design but  I like this Case.  I won it on a giveaway on some blog several years ago.  It's a little big for EDC with a closed size of 4 inches and open with around 8 inches, but it is a useful and pretty knife.  I think they called it a hip pocket folder.

A Case Trapper I really have enjoyed using, it is same size as my Buck 112, yet has two blades in SS. 
3rd knife down (;))

Thank you.  I discovered that the Case style number began with a ‘10’, it has G10 scales.  In Orange a favorite color for me.

Here is a Case Trapper that I rescued a few months ago.

I reconditioned it and then decided to mirror polish the blades as well.

The top two photos are the knife as I received it and the bottom two are the reconditioned Trapper.

CD your model is called a "Back Pocket".

It's the same body as the Panama Trapper except it has a single blade.

That's a nice one to own.

PS: Case also makes a single blade Trapper.

Nice G-10 LC.

When they come up for sale they'll usually bring 60-70 dollars in new condition..

Found for much much less.  Because of my lessons at MTo, knew not to walk away.

Day 7 - moving into a traditional folder before I start lapping back around.  I bought this Uncle Henry in the fall of 1981.  This, obviously, is my most carried knife.  I've castrated quite a few calves with it, cut a few hogs and lots of other things.  It takes an edge well and is simply, a fantastic knife.

Wow, when I left the farm in the 70s for college we were already banding the calves and hogs to prevent infections from cutting.

Nice Stockman.
