This knife is just under 3-3/4" closed,and just under 1/2" thick. It was my idea for a modified warncliffe trapper.It is based off Menefee's "Front pocket" frame,witch is Tony Bose' BP pattern,shrunk down. I asked a few makers to build something like this,I finally got Bret Dowell to master mind it.
I am quite pleased.These are Bret's pics .


Parts is parts


This is the "Hog Neck Trapper"

I had no idea you were getting this. Enjoy it Jason!
 
When I got home yesterday, I had a this beauty waiting for me!!
The Hog Neck Trapper!! it's awesome! The action on this thing
is amazing! The grinds are great, it's razor sharp! The entire F/F
of the Knife is 2nd to none!!
Bret did a outstanding job!! I used his pics, I'm not very good
with the camera! But I'll try and take some this afternoon before
it gets dark!
Bret, Thanks for making such a wonderful knife!! It will get allot of
pocket time! Thanks for looking.


Jason
