Blades: The standard Trapper pattern, this folder features a full-size clip point and spay blade both at the same end of the handle. Satin finished Tru-Sharp stainless-steel blades have shallow hollow grinds for balanced performance and durability. The blades open smoothly via the nail nick openers with a solid snap from the back spring keeping the blades secure and ready to use.

Handle: Polished Nickel Silver bolsters frame smooth, Autumn Maple Burl wood covers for a handsome, classic look. Wood is a traditional material that offers good durability and weather resistance, with a warm feel in hand and plenty of visual appeal. The front handle sports a polished Case Diamond 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.
