Rat Brand single blade Barehead trapper!

Post by muskrat man »

Just kiddin' I wont be making many of these I'm afraid, ALOT of work.
It's a single blade barehead trapper. I made everything from scratch. the blade is mirror polished L6 the spring is L6 too, I cut a nail nick, deep faux edge, red jigged bone handles, brass pins, red brass liners, yellow brass bolsters. Now, if you'll excuse me, I am broke, fingers, hands, legs, arms, back, neck,-I'm broke
BTW, the pictures suck I'm gonna try for better ones tommorow, just couldn't wait to post it.

Hey Muskrat Man after thinking about ordering 5 or 6 Barehead Trappers I would rather let you rest for a while. Please get a little rest you don't look yourself..

Thanks again for the picture of you outside your shop!! ::tu:: 8)
