<p>I'm not sure if it was just guys that I was around when I was just getting my feet wet in serious knife collecting back in the 1970's, but it always seemed guys acted like the Case 54 yellow Trapper was a sacred thing. Is there still a lot of interest in yellow Case Trappers today? Or was it just the old North Carolina/Tennessee collectors back then?</p>

<p>At any rate, I need to get one sometime.…</p>

<p>What do you serious Trapper collectors think................</p>
<p></p>
<p>Waaay back, many, many moons ago when I was getting into knife collecting in a serious way and learning the ropes, all the serious collectors always made the argument that a Trapper is a Trapper <strong>only if it has a clip and spey blade!!</strong> Anything else is a Jack Knife! Especially if it's a single blade....it's a single blade Jack Knife!</p>

<p>So what say you all? Are you as hard nosed over the terminology for a "Trapper"? Or does anything go nowadays?</p> Full size vs, Minitag:iknifecollector.com,2012-01-08:3181080:Topic:5289682012-01-08T02:11:59.728ZArlen Norbyhttps://iknifecollector.com/profile/ArlenNorby
<p>I've seen several examples of really good looking trappers recently but they are small about 2 1/2 inches. But I will say I not only like the look of the Trapper but it slips into a pocket so much easier than its larger full size.</p>
<p>Would you say they have a place in the Trapper family?</p>
