Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
I have two trappers, both given to me by my Dad. He loves a Trapper style knife!
The first one is a Case 6207 (not sure that it counts as "full-sized", but whatever). I have never carried it: The other is a Case 6254 6-dot that he gave me when I was a teen-ager, probably in the early 80's
He had two knives to give that day, and he let my brother and I choose which one we wanted. My brother chose the 5-dot because it was Stainless, and I chose this one. I carried it a lot back then, and always loved the wonderful patina on these carbon blades.

Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
The 6207 is a Mini-Trapper. 3½" closed length.
The 6254 is a full sized trapper. 4-1/8" closed length.
And not mentioned, the 62154 is a Tiny Trapper. 2-3/8" Closed Length
For some reason, lately I've been running into a bunch of Tiny-Trappers listed on eBay as Mini-Trappers.
It just seems to be a small group of sellers. I notified a couple of the discrepancy and received a polite but disinterested reply and they didn't bother to modify their listings. Small knives don't sell as well as the medium size and up???

Yes it is - perhaps a bad choice as a prop for my OIF knife - but those two medals came from that war (I won't own any insignia, etc. that isn't mine - unless of course it was my Dad's).

Keep remembering I have more Trappers - not a pocketknife that I ever carry but one that I seem to have plenty of! Few more Case. OH

Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
A few more - the Case fat stag from 1976 is why I don't buy too many stag handled knives - looks great but way to bulbous in the hand. The Remington Trapper (as built by Camillus) stayed in my old truck - gave the truck to my daughter and S-I-L and the knife went with the truck. OH

Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
Great choice of props and I would love to know the story behind it. If I'm not wrong our military doesn't hand our Bronze Participation Stars, thank you for earning it.Old Hunter wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2020 11:46 amYes it is - perhaps a bad choice as a prop for my OIF knife - but those two medals came from that war (I won't own any insignia, etc. that isn't mine - unless of course it was my Dad's).
Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
I have to agree with you regarding fat stag. I just don't care for it. It seems a little unusual to find such grotesque stag on a seventies trapper. I figured that trend started in the 1980's and 90's.Old Hunter wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2020 12:47 pm A few more - the Case fat stag from 1976 is why I don't buy too many stag handled knives - looks great but way to bulbous in the hand.

Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
Is a Trapper stll a Trapper if it only has one blade?
If anyone has the R6154 and would want to sell it, I'm interested.

Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
In my opinion (and God knows I have plenty of them) a 54 is a 54, be it Remington or Case, a 154, a 254, a 354 or a 554.

Re: Show ur FULL Size Trappers..
Here are the majority of mine, of course I found more after taking these photos.
I believe I have a little over 140 Trappers.
