Re: Trapper
Nice find and in Stag too. Is it correct to assume it's a 54 (full size)?

Re: Trapper
Great stag!
I've long doubted the wisdom of blade etches that will not be relevant after a little use and resharpening but the razor edge etch has yet to stop me from buying. The P in the tang stamp sufix SSP means polish edges so it is equally questionable. SSP meant stainless steel springs and blades and better honed or stropped edges. The P is occasionally said to mean polished blades but many 1970's stainless knives with satin blades are stamped SSP.
54 v. 07 is quickly answered by looking at the location of the nail nick. That also separates 07s from other brands' Mini-Ts.
