A Little Muskrat Love

[Papa Bones]

So actually it's a 2 3/4, 2007, "Tiny" Muskrat, etched Central Kentucky Knife Club 2007 Show Knife. Got this one from Sanders Knives here on the AAPK.

Thanks for looking!

That's a Beauty Tom.

Thank you Smitty! As I already mentioned, it's a 2007 and represents my youngest child ( Lorelai, who was born in 2007 ) in my "Case Family Collection".

The 4 blade knife is not a muskrat pattern. It looks like a 4 blade Stockman which is a rarely seen pattern. Muskrat pattern has 2 slender clip blades.

I hear what your saying....but. This is a pattern that is/was called a Muskrat Texas Rat. The blades are the same configuration as a large muskrat. The body seems to be the same design as the Rosewood Muskrat, just with Chestnut Bone Scales. I purchased it in 2009 at Shepard Hills. I can't remember if this was a special release, but besides Tex Muskrat stamped on the blade it also had "Tested XX" stamped on the other.

I always thought the Texrat was a neat knife. I once had several of them including a stag and mammoth tooth versions.
