I just bought a queen trapper on ebay. I was pretty excited about it, ive heard all the good things about queens quality. This thing feel cheap though. I have a few case trappers that feel much better. Much more of a quality feel. Id almost compare the feel of this trapper to the feel of a cheap 12 dollar colt trapper I bought. Are there conterfeit Queen trappers?

Once you have the web address, copy it, then paste it into your post, then put BBS code around it, like this:

I don't think anybody is faking Queen knives. Depending on when it was made though, the quality could be questionable. Blade wobble, inconsistent spring strength, butter-knife edges, etc.
 
Maybe it is legit. It just feel cheap. I can bend the blades back and forth quite a bit by hand. I can bend the blades on my case as well but not as much. It just doesnt feel as stout as my case knives. Maybe it's because it lighter in qeight. Or maybe I was expecting too much. I felt like, by what ive read, id be blown away by the quality versus the case knives.

Do you mean sideways play? That can usually be fixed. Queen still have pins through the bolsters, don't they?
 
No it doesnt really have blade play, I mean I can actually bend the metal of the blade. If I grab it with two fingers it will actually bend quite a bit back and forth
