I made a bid on this CASE Trapper on the Shepherd Hills website during their September auction and then never gave it a second thought. I had no expectations of winning it, but I just received a phone call from them confirming I won and it's in the mail!

Thanks. Hardly ever see those so I decided to jump while the jumpin' was good. The condition appears to be very good.

Sweet knives Jerry. I have a couple of those Western 6504 and they are almost a 72 clone but not quite. Close enough to be cousins. I really like them. ::handshake::

Floyd, what is it about the Western 6504 that keeps it from being a 72 clone (in your opinion)?

Jerry, it is not built on a swell center frame and I believe it to be slightly shorter than the 72. Both mine are put away but here is a pick to compare them with.
Top knife a 72 and next a 6504

Thanks Floyd. I never noticed that. Maybe that's why I had a picture of one but didn't have one of the knives. ::facepalm::

Too late now Lewis. Done bit the things head off. It will be here the first part of next week.

Knice pickup buddy!

She's an especially fine example, of a pattern I've been meaning to collect myself; just other 'un's keep catching my eye... :mrgreen:

After going through a period of waffling and deleting it from my eBay watch list, unable to make a decision whether or not to buy one of these RR Southwest Bow Trappers, I sank into the darkness of the abyss this morning and placed one on order. I had decided I wasn't going to buy any knives this month but my justification was it will go well with the other three RR Bow Trappers I already have. ::facepalm:: As Ray Stevens sang in the song "The Mississippi Squirrel Revival", "The devil got a-hold on me".

Good looking knife Jerry. Some intricate work on the handles there. But I feel you my friend, I myself have made that same statement, but..........in reality in my case it is, "JUST..........ONE...............MORE..............MUST............RESIST.............OTHERS" In which case I usually fail. ::facepalm::
