A favorite among Case collectors, the Trapper has been in production since the 1920s and is still a popular and utilitarian jack knife. Originally designed for trapping and skinning tasks, this lightweight is a great all around user thanks to the versatile design. The Slimline Trapper offers an even lighter platform in a slim single blade design. A fine addition to any Case collection, this version comes with a polished Tru-Sharp stainless steel blade, matching nickel silver bolsters and bow tie shield and smooth black Sycamore wood covers.

Blade: The Slimline Trapper pattern offers a single, sleek, long clip point blade perfect for simple everyday tasks. Made of Case’s Tru-Sharp Stainless steel the blade is equipped with a slicing hollow grind, single nail nick opener and mirror satin finish.

Handle: Handsome smooth black Sycamore wood covers are attached to brass liners with brass pins in the traditional style with plenty of figuring for visual appeal and a warm feel in the hand. A solid back spring delivers smooth, slip-joint operation for safe operation in use. The front cover sports an embossed Case Bow Tie shield. 

Case Tru-Sharp: Case Tru-Sharp is another name for 420HC, a stainless steel that provides excellent rust resistance, ease of re-sharpening and moderate edge retention while being exceptionally tough for a stainless steel. With appropriate heat treatment it is said to preform similarly to VG-10 in wear resistance.
