COLD STEEL TRAPPER 3.3″ JIGGED BONE

Description

The Cold Steel Trapper folding knife features a 3" 8Cr13MoV stainless blade, jigged bone handle.

The blade is 8Cr13MoV SS, a budget-friendly Chinese stainless that sharpens easily and resists rust well, though it needs touching up more often than premium steels.

Around three inches is the everyday carry sweet spot – long enough for boxes, cord, food prep and general utility, short enough to disappear in a pocket.

Carry laws are set locally as well as by state, and a 3.0" blade is legal to carry in many places and not in others – check your state and city rules before you carry it. Knives ship directly to you with no FFL transfer and no background check, unlike a firearm. Keep the blade dry and the pivot clean, and touch the edge up on a strop or fine stone before it gets properly dull – it is far less work than bringing back a blunt edge.

The Cold Steel Trapper Folding Knife is Cold Steel's variation on the classic slip-joint Trapper knife. It features handles made of authentic bone and highlighted with polished metal bolsters. The rugged, substantially sized handles are built for hard work, even with gloved hands. It is constructed in a traditional Jack Knife pattern, with two polished blades: a clip-point blade for piercing and cutting, and a spey blade for skinning and gutting, both folding out of one end of the knife's grip. Popular folklore has long placed the Trapper as the preferred choice of rugged outdoorsmen and frontier hunters, but its inherent practicality makes it useful for all sorts of chores and well suited to almost any environment, from urban to rural. It makes a great pocket knife and is perfect for domestic projects, outdoor use, or as a hunting knife.
