Northfield UN-X-LD #23 Trapper Single Blade Liner Lock Brown Jigged Bone 235120LL

The #23 from Great Eastern Cutlery is the GEC version of a classic trapper. Instead of the traditional blade profile Great Eastern has opted to go with a single drop point Skinner paired with a robust liner lock mechanism. With a full size handle, flat ground, 1095 carbon steel, drop point blade and robust liner lock, this Trapper is ready to handle your heavy use tasks. This Northfield UN-X-LD version comes with a polished blade, bolsters with Brown Jigged Bone covers and TBD shield.

Brand new, direct from Great Eastern Cutlery, USA.

Blade: The #23 Liner Lock Trapper comes with a single drop point Skinner blade equipped with a polished full flat grind, subtle top swedge and long pull for opening. Unlike a traditional trapper the #23LL has a stainless liner lock mechanism that pairs with the stainless steel back spring to offer a smooth and snappy operation with added security in use.

Handle: Brown Jigged Bone handle scales are fitted perfectly to a single polished and grooved nickel silver bolster of the generous handle, supported by solid brass liners. Brown Jigged Bone delivers an organic look and warm in hand feel, perfect for this timeless traditional design as well as offering enhanced traction. A single stainless steel liner forms the locking mechanism with a generous tab for secure purchase and reliable operation. Brass liners and pins round out construction along with the polished TBD shield.

Each GEC folder ships rolled in wax paper inside a shipping tube with company information on the front.

1095 High Carbon Steel: Highly popular, simple carbon steel. Used extensively by both production and custom knife makers. Low abrasive wear due to low carbide content but very tough and easy to sharpen. Not corrosion resistant and will rust without proper care.
