Where is a good place to shop for GEC? I'm a huge fan of the Case Slimline trapper (048) pattern and am told GEC's slimline is pattern 048 as well. I've seen some great pics of the GEC slims and…Continue

Case Slimline Trapper in Armadillo

"That was a good question Kevin, and a great reply Lars. I know they were stabalized and encased in epoxy resin. Like most materials I was wearing my respirator, but never thought anymore of it. I'd asked a couple of…"

Case Slimline Trapper in Armadillo

"Excellent information Lars, I was asking because I am very much ignorant of pretty much everything about it. Cannot learn if you do not ask, right? But I do like the looks of it a lot."

Case Slimline Trapper in Armadillo

"That's a great question Kevin - I wouldn't have thought of asking. So I contacted my daughter Morgan who is an RN and asked her. She tells me that cases in TX and LA suggest that it can, but those in FL say no. I think she told me that to…"

Case Sodbuster Jr 1 of 25

"Ha!! Learning something new every day. :) I did not know for sure what was meant by the bird's eye pivot. I was thinking bird's eye maple (Why in the world would anyone use wood as a pivot?). When I looked them up I…"

Case Sodbuster Jr 1 of 25

"I can understand not putting the birdseye on some of the handle materials, but a smooth one like the burlap simply cries out for one."

Case Sodbuster Jr 1 of 25

"I don't totally disagree with you JJ, but as someone who likes to tinker with them....it's much easier with the 3/32" pin...LOL. But yes, the birdseye pivot is very much a part of the soddy history and gives them that eclectic…"

Case Sodbuster Jr 1 of 25

"I really like the sodbuster Jr. Really nice knife for the pocket. What I miss, though, is the birdseye pivot. That pivot is what stands out on a soddie."

"New from the Case Collectors Club, limited to only 25 pieces. Red burlap micarta handles with a black oval shield and First Production Run scrolling on the blade. Nice piece for the collection."

KnifeMakerAndy Larrison replied to Ron Deter's discussion Help have a caseXX stumper!

"I believe to be the mini trapper, '07 pattern. But that's pretty much all I know. I have however reached out to folks on another Forum to help get more information. I'll share as it come's through."

KnifeMakerAndy Larrison replied to Ron Deter's discussion HELP! what is it?? in the group Case Fans

"I'd say it's definitely an '07 pattern mini trapper at that length. The series I'm referring to had no bolsters at all. Not sure why no pattern stamp, but that's not a huge deal either. Here's a…"

Profile Information

Profile: KnifeMaker

How did you hear about iKnifeCollector?: Web search

How long have you collected knives?: 3- 5 years

Favorite Kind of Knives: Case (48) & (07) slimline trapper and mini trapper

About Me: Married with 2 sons. I was introduced to knife collecting by my son, who was only 15 at the time, a few years ago. I quickly took a liking to the Case slimline trappers and recently got a taste for the mini trapper styles.

Interests: I enjoy looking for older knives now, pre 1980. When I'm not working I enjoy spending time with my wife and boys, 18 & 16. I like to view mountain scenery and search pawn and antique shops for the "hidden treasures".

Other Hobbies: Other interests......catching a nice large mouth bass on a top water lure.
