Pattern - Muskrat / Hawbaker
 This
knife is a double end jack knife that is known as a muskrat, or muskrat
trapper. Case did not assign a
designated pattern number for these knives. The word muskrat is stamped directly onto
the blade. Case uses the same frame as the 47 pattern stockman in making
the pattern. All of them, with the exception of the Hawbaker Special
(pictured below), have two identical clip blades that open on opposite sides of each other.
The Hawbaker has  one clip blade, and one
sheepfoot blade. Almost all muskrats measure 3 7/8" when closed, but there are a few smaller sized muskrats that were built on the 18 pattern
stockman frame. These versions measure 3 1/2" closed. The original
muskrat knives were introduced sometime before 1940, and the Hawbaker was introduced
between 1965 and 1969.
