Mini trapper

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Mini trapper

Post by GardenGram »

Just found this one in a old fashioned hardware store. New old stock. From my limited experience, I think it's a chestnut bone from 2000.

You are correct. It's a 2000. It should tell you on the box (if it came in one) what color the bone is. Very nice. Good find. I hope you got it for a 20 year old price. :mrgreen:

Thank you. No box. Was hanging in a baggie with the newer ones. 45 plus tax. I'm happy.

Always a pleasure to welcome a new rider aboard the Mini Trapper Train. ::welcome:: ::handshake::

Thanks for showing yours, GardenGram. That Chestnut Bone is mighty purty, and the older style shield on a newer model 07 makes yours extra special ...ya done good. ::tu::

Seeing yours makes the mini trapper monkey on my back drool and shriek with glee; so now, of course, I have to MSMD (Monkey See, Monkey Do) and show mine! I believe it's just one of the (unwritten) rules of belonging to the "Mini Trapper Tribe".
