Fist up, I have a German Eye Trapper that's 4 1/8" closed, with stag scales and 1095 blades. It's been well used, and so the blades have a healthy patina, but it's in good shape overall. Here's some things that I'd be interested in trading for:
AG Russell 3" Titanium Lockback
Buck Vantage Pro
Buck Vantage Avid
Case CV Slimline Trapper
Anything that isn't unnamed/440 (except 440C) stainless, and anything that isn't overly tactical
I also have a used EKA Swede 88. The pivot shows wear from adjustment, but overall the handle is in great shape. The blade is in OK condition, with light scratches from use and a small chip/nick/flatspot near the tip that you don't notice in use, only when looking at the edge in the right light at the right angle, and equates to a small, sharpened divot at this point. It's too insignificant to capture in pictures. As far as trades:
Anything that doesn't have unnamed/440 (except for 440C) stainless and anything that isn't overly tactical.
If you are going to offer slipjoints, I prefer single blade.
Pics (sorry they aren't too great, to get scratches to show up I needed to get glare on the blades, and while you can't actually see the patina on the entire blade for the German Eye, the patina is pretty much consistent along its length):
