TRAPPER TUESDAY

[Prester John]

Furtaker Trapper

A birthday gift from my wife.

Reckon she's right fond of you.

Thanks, Dave and John, it was eight years ago and she hasn't left me yet! (The wife or the Furtaker! )

I've never tried a trapper, never really looked one over to be honest. I'd like to try one, so I'm looking for suggestions. (I don't care for Rough Rider, fyi).

Start with a Case CV mini-trapper!

A few dealers still have GEC 48 models, which is a full size trapper.

Great recommendation, that's where I'd start too.
Not too pricey and a good representation of the pattern to get a feel for it.

A mini trapper is more pocket-friendly, but I prefer a full-size Case trapper. I like big knives! Can't go wrong with either.

Thanks. I'll probably opt for a yellow CV mini. That combo, like my peanut, is a looker!

I think the Case mini trapper is an ideal size, and I prefer the Wharncliffe version to the standard with the long spey blade.

My wharncliffe mini trapper is SS, but you can get a standard yellow mini trapper in CV. Haven't seen a CV wharncliffe.

Cool pic. I like the shadow of the screen on the handle. Bone-stag?

Yep. Bone-stag, and particularly well done.

As best as I can tell, not in current production. Don't know if there was anything in the past.
