Grn Bn 5 blade trapper, run and snap up or not
Ran across a I believe (Forgot to check #) 6554SS (4 Dot 1996) Green Jigged Bone 5 blade Trapper w/ I think original box priced at $99 (could ask if would go lower) Saturday. Green Bone is hand written on the label on the box and I didn't get the item # and label looks different than now, but not sure what correct period should look like. Being a novice I think I'd call it Mint. Coloring looks good to me, etc. Sooner State has one like it, Mint no box for $150. What does everyone think???? Should I run tomorrow and snag it before it's gone????

If you like it enough at that price and are willing to buy it, then why not? One important aspect of collecting knives is in obtaining what appeals to us. OH
Ps. Sounds like "The Beast" that were made by Case for Shepherd Hills in 1996; see linked article about Back in 1972 along Route 66.

Pps. Price wise it sounds right in there with this one on e-bay.

Deep in the guts of most men is buried the involuntary response to the hunter's horn, a prickle of the nape hairs, an acceleration of the pulse, an atavistic memory of his fathers, who killed first with stone, and then with club...Robert Ruark
