What is a Trapper Pocket Knife?

A Trapper Knife, also known as a "traditional Trapper pocket knife" or "old-fashioned Trapper knife," is a two-bladed pocket knife with both blades positioned on one side of the handle. The blades are typically crafted from stainless steel, carbon steel, or Damascus steel, ensuring durability and performance. The two blades include:

Clip Blade: The larger of the two blades, ideal for precise cutting tasks.
Spey Blade: A slightly smaller blade designed for skinning or general use.

Trapper knives feature slip-joint mechanisms, providing a secure "snap" that helps keep the blade open or closed. These knives are complemented by polished nickel silver bolsters, which can be rounded or squared depending on the model.
