Cooper Cutlery that's a possibility, I would think it would be Bear and Son.Can’t help but wonder if it’s not that blue grass cutlery or whatever the name is, out of Ohio that bought up many old brands. The company that makes the weed knives lol.
Although the prices are below the weed knives and the large trappers look better made based on the stock pictures.
The pics of the regular trappers look pretty bad IMO.
The stag looks nice on those. That large trapper is THICC! I’m looking forward to seeing where this line goes.I'm sold. Very nice fit and finish and the stag is done really well, the walk and talk is just ok not a hard pull by any means and perfect centering on all the blades and no blade rap or rub.

Supposedly they will have more coming around Christmas time I believe.The stag looks nice on those. That large trapper is THICC! I’m looking forward to seeing where this line goes.
The large trapper looks very nice, that huge liner lock though! That would be getting ground down ASAP.
Yes Cooper cutlery is who I was referring to.
Never made any sense to me having their first releases adorned with pot leaves, I just can’t see many traditional knife fans being the target audience for anything emblazoned with marijuana symbols.
Im younger than most here and I don’t want that on my knife.
Bear and sons is a possibility, but the quality looks to be better than what I’m accustomed to seeing come from them.
The blade grinds and polish on that regular trapper do look very rough Ryder to my eye. The Chinese knives made there just have a style about them.
Can I ask you to take photographs in hand? In the fist and on the palm?Supposedly they will have more coming around Christmas time I believe.
The locking trapper is definitely stout it's quite large, the regular trapper seems to be on par with most trappers maybe a tad thicker.
You want both or just the large trapper?Can I ask you to take photographs in hand? In the fist and on the palm?
I should have picked up a smooth bone too for comparison.Both small trappers are sold out already.
I have a smooth bone on the way. Will post pictures when I get it.I should have picked up a smooth bone too for comparison.
I'm sure they'll churn out more in the coming months especially if they sold out in less than 3 days.
