Timely Posting but aside from that an interesting acquisition. The Trapperlock Patern was "New for 2009 Release" and was rolled out in about 8 handle choices. Shepherd Hills casexx.com produced these last October. If you have not check out thier sight before do so. They run some specials and have some SFO knives that rival the best bid win on eBay and the SFO's are truly collector offerings in most cases. Becky's Cutomer Service is second to none. www.shepherdhills.com or casexx.com - The sight has some patern graphics that are great for the new Case fan to identify paterns. This knife is still unique aside from being released 3 moths early, the Trapperlocks for sale now do not have the seraded SS Blade. Haloween or not I'm glad I bought it last year.
