I am just starting to get into traditional knives and I like the trapper design but i want the second blade to be a wharncliffe blade instead of the spay blade I know that Case has their mini trapper with this but are there any other companies that have that with the full size? thank you for the help

Welcome to BladeForums!
A few years back, Case made that design in three sizes, Tiny, Mini, and Full size 4 1/8". All of them were made in Tru-Sharp stainless. If you go looking on large auction sites or on some vendor sites, you can sometimes find one.
For that matter, Mike at Collectorknives.net has a couple of Case full size Wharncliffe Trappers on his site at the moment. Mike has a BF dealer membership, so it is right and proper to mention him. Look under "Case Knives - General".

Hello and a warm welcome to the Forum.
You could look into GEC's 54 pattern (I think!) 'Furtaker' which has Clip/Wharncliffe blades. Check the company website for dealer links&pix. A bigger knife in carbon.
Mind you, the CASE Mini Wharncliffe is not mini in my book and offers decent grip.
Thanks, Will

Hi, and welcome to the porch of traditional knive lovers 
I've never handled one, but the Case wharncliffe trapper might be what you are looking for.
But...
this is Bladeforums, and the very pattern you are looking for is about to be released by GEC as the BF 2012 knife.
You can call it a coincidence...or decide there's some karma in it, and go for it
