Jtx: The "rules", like all rules, are made to be broken. Besides, you didn't really break any rule other than the one about posting a "matching" mini trapper...which was not a well-considered rule in the first place and has since been revoked in the interest of greater diversity.

The Case 6207 you originally posted is a beautiful mini trapper that certainly deserves to be shown in this thread. Please consider re-posting it so we may all continue to enjoy seeing it.

OK, here it is again. Thanks.

Aloha Jtx,
Remember posting this gorgeous Case XX 6207 back a few years ago in the Mini TrapPER DIEM thread?

Well, I'm currently doing a little Mini Trapper Timeline Project in the ODE To The 07 thread ( viewtopic.php?f=66&t=52911&start=1140 ) with the goal of documenting the evolution of the Case 07 pattern from the Tested era up thru today (100 years). I just started documenting the XX era 07 and was hoping I could convince you to post a photo of your 6207 from that era (you could even post the same photo if you still have it). Yours has some of the nicest bone I've ever seen on a 07 from that era and I'd really like to have it shown on the timeline.

If it's not too much trouble I would really appreciate it and know that other Mini Trapper fans would love to see it again.

Thanks for considering my request.

PS--Should you ever want to sell it, please keep me in mind...I would love to have a knife like that in my collection.

Thank you Tom.

Is real winterbottom prone to cracking ,shrinking,? Don’t have but a couple of newer Queens,and not a collector of them ,but in my travels am always looking for any knife ,even if it’s something that someone else collects, and get it for them.
In short , what’s a way for a person to tell the difference.
Thank you
