Blade: Made from C75 carbon steel the Trapper comes with a single clip point blade, a defining feature of the Trapper pattern.

Handle: Smooth Plum wood handle scales are flush fit to polished nickel silver bolsters.

Brass liners support the scales and bolsters and house the stainless steel back spring which deliver a strong slip joint operation.
