Agreed, Craig - good article.  It is perhaps a good thing that I don't collect Trappers.

1.  The old ones are way too expensive for my taste, so I could only afford the dime-a-dozen new ones.  For a Grand, I would be looking for a fixed blade with about a 6" blade, a minimum of 3/16" thick, and "exotic" steel. Plus, I'd want to use it, and although a Tested XX trapper I might find would almost certainly be used - and expensive, I would be uncomfortable using it.

2.  The article was confusing. 

I get that the early Trappers had/have short rear bolsters, and I get the closed "C", but in that last picture with the three trappers I can't tell the top two apart.

Maybe I should have said "When I win the lottery I'll buy everyone a knife.......within reason."
