I lightened it a little bit and it sure as shootin' don't look like any Roger's Bone I've ever seen.

Won this one on AAPK almost exactly 7 years ago.

Got this one because..... Well I think that's obvious.

This one by accident. Thought I was buying a Mini-Trapper.

These two because they're 54W's

Ba-Dia, Ba-Dia, Ba-Dia, that's all folks (in my best Porky Pig imitation)

Wow Jerry - that first one is the highly coveted "rat trapper" - having the rare sweeping clip blade - super nice in stag !!

I used to hate full size trappers ... over time, they grew on me. Now, they've become one of my all time fave weekend carry knives - very rugged and useful (I like to thin out the clip and pointy up the tip of the spey). Here's my pile --->

Nice pile
I'm not a fan of the large trapper, either. Just don't like that looooooong spay.
I'm sure you've posted elsewhere, but could you post a pic here of your blade mods on the large trapper?
Maybe that'll change my mind about this pattern.

Sure, here's a pic of the little tweak I like to do to the blades on full size trappers (take the big belly out of the clip and tidy up the point on the spey)

Here's the before and after pics I found --->

Thanks John.
Nice, but still not enough to swing me to the Trapper Club.
Guess once a Stockman guy...

You're joking, right?

That was a give away by Quick Steel.

From one stockman guy to another ... you might like this mod --->

That I like!
Funny, but the short spay on the stockman doesn't bother me like the trapper's long spay.
Don't know why. Just one of those things, I guess

Very generous giveaway at that !! Actually, the "rat trapper" is the name of that rare model with the sweeping clip blade (here's a couple on eBay https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R ... AT+TRAPPER+)

[jerryd6818]

I had no idea. Knew it had to have some value because of the Stag handles, the embellished bolsters and the fact that it's serialized but never would have guessed it was that much.

Nice Trappers all ... I don't have many, other than the usual standard production, but here's one I picked up several years ago; I believe from Shepherd Hills as part of their Civil War Series ...

Nice knife CD. I'd be interested in a post, of the entirety, of the Case description, behind the knife. Very interesting.

[carvin don]

Howdy Doc,

The origin of the pamphlet under the knife is not from Case or Shepherd Hills Cutlery, my apologies for misleading anyone. The pamphlet came from a country store in the Shenandoah Valley.

I will send you a PM of it in its entirety ... thanks for lookin'!
