I've seen several examples of really good looking trappers recently but they are small about 2 1/2 inches. But I will say I not only like the look of the Trapper but it slips into a pocket so much…Continue

Its been a while since I had been very active on here, Ive been slacking lol... Bout time to try and change that!
Comment by Billy Oneale on May 23, 2012 at 22:26 That is sweet, Dustin. That is a nice looking piece of stag on that trapper.
Very nice Dustin, and good to see you! You've been busy buying and that's good! lol
Currently don't have a dogleg but I really like the pattern and may add one eventually. The slightly larger size really fits my hand well.
Comment by Samuel Bevard on March 6, 2012 at 18:16 I really like the 40 pattern dogleg or jumbo Trappers like the one in the photo Jan sent. I got a stag in the pattertn from the Centennial series & have three of the Limited Editions : '96 Antique Olive and black and blue bone from '97 & '98. 40's seem to be a fairly rare pattern.
Comment by Samuel Bevard on March 6, 2012 at 18:11 I'm sure that my two Spirit of Freedom 54 Trappers have '90 dated blades, despite the fact their embellishments are for the two phases of the first Gulf War, which was in 1990 and 1991. I understand that such anomalies are not unusual in Case tang stamps. My green bone knife's pattern# begins with BG and I think this has some reference to the color, though using a letter to designate a bone color is unusual. The stag knife has just a regular 5254 #.
Comment by Samuel Bevard on March 5, 2012 at 20:06 Thanks. This is a gorgeous knife. It looks like a 40 pattern Dogleg Trapper. Both of mine are regular 54's. The blade etchings look the same as on my knives. I don't have the boxes. The series must have been issued after '91, but the date is so tiny I cant read it. The 200 knife limit must pertain to the 40 patterns only, because my knives serial #'s begin with a 0 and are four-digits.
I should be able to get us some more info but the Case College is down right now
