Sooo many knives, sooo little money. I'm hot on my Canoes, but I need some Trappers.......and my eyes have been wandering to the Mini Copperhead. help

Nothing like a good old yeller Trapper. Hey Ken, there's a place for yeller knives too - http://www.iknifecollector.com/forum/topics/good-old-yeller-handles...

New Saddlehorn out in Yellow!

Here's a great picture of that Green Ivy Canoe posted on the Case Collectors Club by "Sasquach" - 

What a unique looking knife. Really nice.

If I remember right, there were five (?) patterns used for the Green Ivy.

besides my Baby Butterbeans I'm thinking about this one......which if I like I'll have to figure out how I can get my Beans AND Tiny Trappers! LOL!

Hahaha.  I'm with you on the Canoes and Beans, Craig.  But, Trappers shoulda died off with the trapping industry; just ain't my cup of tea.  Mind you, I have some cause everbody commemorates somthin with a dang Trapper.  PA Game Commission issued a series of 5 Mini-Trappers (one each year), one for each of PAs game birds, and the NRA issued at least one.  Plus, the Remington 25 year Anniversary Bullet knife was a big trapper. 

Once upon a time I felt the same way, but then I started to carry a Case Mini Trapper back around 1980 for a while and suddenly I started to appreciate the long spey blade! So for me, I like it when I want a blade that isn't so "pointy" for some jobs. So I'm one of the ones that still appreciates the good old Trapper. 

Maybe they kept the pattern cause you are trapped into buyin one if you want a commemorative knife, like the Case Presidential Dollar ones - of which I have none, cause I been buyin the Silver Eagle Canoes.

My Stockmans are taking a rest. It's Canoes and Trappers for a while I think. But I DO "need" a Swayback Gent in Pocket Worn Red.....for using.......and one for collecting. LOL!

For me, if I want a non pointy blade, i like a sheepfoot or coping blade.  As for the spay blade, on a few occasions I've take a file and rounded the tip off so it lacks that itty-bitty point.  The value of the knife disappears but then I have an actual non-pointy blade.

I like the Case mini trappers - I have two that I use at times for EDC.

Yeah, there's A LOT of guys that still like a Trapper for EDC. But, like everything else, different strokes for different folks!

Trappers are my favorite Case knife for EDC.  I like the bigger ones for the type of use I put them through.

This is coming out in October. I'll think I'll be getting.......hmmm.......three? One for carry, one for the collection, and one for backup. 

Craig, that's one sweet knife. I might look at it also.

Craig that is a nice one! What color they callin that? The pinched bolster is too cool!

Oops, I should have said what handles. They call it "Honeycomb Jigged Bone". Looks mighty fine to me!  And, of course, it's a Baby Butterbean.

If you're interested, I posted pictures of the gift tin my Gunboat came in......that I forgot to post the first time.

Good lookin Tin! They do put out some good lookin Tins, and sometimes they have other little things in the Tins also I have a belt buckle( Flag)

Snagged this in Bradford today.

Paul, sweet looking knife, good snag.

Very Nice Paul! I really like that shield and the Copperhead!

That's nice Max! With buckle?! Cool!

That's a good looking Copperhead Paul! Hey wait, is that mine???? What the......

Yes Craig, with buckle! It's the 9-11 Muskrat, only the Red didn't have anything other than the knife. The MOP had a medallion.

Wow, I love that American flag/Case lids! That is too cool!  That's icing on the beautiful peal Muskrat medallion cake!

I only have a few gift tins, but I like them.

Not mine, but here's a cool Ducks Unlimited one.....with a Duck Call!

Case XX Mini Blackhorn - a nice light inexpensive Case EDC

That's a nice little lightweight knife Ken! 

Here's another one of those new Brass Script Kentucky Bluegrass knives. They are Shepherd Hills Exclusives.

New Halloween knife for this Halloween.......a dead Pumpkin! LOL!

And the new Christmas knives.........

The Baby Butterbean won't be the only one in the new Honeycomb Bone........the Standard Canoe and four other patterns; Trapper, Stockman, Copperlock and Peanut.

Ordered a Case XX Caliber Camo Lockback Zytel 118 last night and it says shipped today - can't wait to get it.

I should be getting my Case Canoe maybe Monday - pics will follow.

COOL! I'll be anxious to see pictures Ken!

I might have to get one of these Tiny Trappers. I love my 33 in Pine Cone Bone.

Here's the Baby Butterbean in the Honey Comb Bone.......

Sweet little Bean, love that color on those super handles

Yeah, I think I'm gonna have to get one to carry too. I like that Honey Comb Bone. 

I'm going have to figure how I'm going to split my money between Boats and Trappers.

Her's a Tiny Trapper I have my eye on too....

Welcome Barry!

Put your mouse on MEDIA @ the top of the page and go to photos there you can go to MY PHOTOS and upload as long as you know where theyre located.You can upload 25 daily I believe.

Hey Craig, that Honey Comb Bone sure looks tempting.

Hey Barry! Glad to have you with us!!

Welcome Barry!  "Dos and Don'ts".  Do have fun here.  Folks are very friendly, and love Case knives (and probably love every make of knife out there).  Don't get in a snit or take offense.  Nobody means any harm here.  A few comments back I commented that Trappers should have gone the way of trapping furs - gone; just poking some fun.  But, I didn't mean any harm to the Trapper lovers, and I don't think anyone took offense.  Trappers are very popular, and useful - I just don't collect them.  Plus, there is a lot of expertise on knives and sharpening, polishing, etc. so ask away; folks here are willing to help.

Yeah, there's a lot of poking fun kidding around here! LOL! Jump in and have fun!
