In honor of MrBlister ... I HET'd this purple appaloosa copperlock pretty good off eBay ... seller wasn't a knife guy, used bad pics & didn't know what he had --->

I picked up a trapper today I'm not sure about. Most all the ones I've seen have spey blades but this one looks a little diffrent but it also doesnt look altered. The handles are shrinking like the older yellow handles sometimes do. I believe it's a 65-69

Looks like it sat on a dashboard under the hot sun for a few years.

That secondary blade is interesting.

Yea it got cooked for sure. I've tried rehandling a an barehead trapper parker and did an ok job I guess. But it was in worse shape handle wise than this one and probably alot easier, since it didnt have a shield and I didnt put any new pins in it since I didnt pull it apart. I might try to to handle this one or I might just carry it. I really like carbon steel case knives to carry and dont have much in this one.

this purple appaloosa copperlock

...looks mighty fine, John. I'm beginning to think purple might just be your color.

I finally found a 6207W in Antique Amber. I've been looking for one for quite awhile to pair up with my Antique Amber 6107W.

Thats a classic combo you have there Q - I've never seen a 6207W with Tony's signature etch - pretty cool Whats the second signature ?

[Toyodajeff]

I'm not new to collecting and heres part of my knife collection. Excuse the wrong brand knives and display case in the picture. Does anybody think the back blade on that trapper is original or is something somebody did. Now that I'm looking into it I'm going with it being modified.

I remember reading somewhere who the "Lisa S..." person is, but like so many bits of trivia, it didn't stick in my long term memory bank. If the last name were legible, I would just Google it since Google has now officially taken over all storage responsibilities of the many bits of trivia my brain used to handle with relative ease. Now, however, I fear my overloaded brain has exceeded its maximum storage capacity. And forget about trying to actually recall anything, I suffer from acute, advanced and progressive CRS (Can't Remember S**t) disease (for which, ironically, I blame Google).

BTW...I actually have two 107Ws that pair up with my new 6207W:

This one has the same Antique Amber Bone:

But this one has the same Badge Shield:

I'll let you decide which pair you think makes the better match; because as far as I'm concerned, the three of them all together make a perfect menage a trois.

Picked up this 1999 6318 today at the flea market. First 6318. Like it.

Thank you doglegg!! Hard to believe it's a 20 year old knife. He was firm on his price. I have some larger Stockman but wanted one a little smaller. It was 45 dollars but I couldn't pass it by. Appreciate your nice comments!

John, I keep going back and looking at this one. That is very pretty appaloosa bone.

I am not a big stockman fan, I prefer the smaller stockmans as well. And $45 doesn't seem out of line for it. Great pick up.

Thanks Floyd ... I just kinda stepped into that one - must have been my lucky day.

John, that's a Yachtsman. The marlin spike locks on a riggers knife. She sure is a fine looking example.

[doglegg]

JohnR, that is a beauty. Looks new. I'm not a sailor but I like the looks of those knives.

Thanks guys, Jerry thank you for the clarification, appreciate it.

[Quick Steel]

John R that is a very handsome knife. I like it a lot.

jerryd, I never knew the distinction. Thanks so much.

It's something I learned right here on AAPK.
