So far, these two today.

Great looking pieces you got there, black mamba!

Can you tell us what the story is behind these knives? I love the shape and grain on that dogleg trapper! Is it vintage?

Thanks for sharing :thumbup:

It's been a while since carrying this one. Just got it back from being serviced by GEC.

Thanks. I asked if they could reduce or eliminate the lateral blade play. There was also a small bit of vertical play but that's true of many lockbacks. I'm happy to report there is now no play in either direction now and it feels extremely solid.

Thanks. Fit and finish are pretty good to my eyeballs. I got it in 2011. The only minor quibble is that when the blades are closed, the exposed tangs are very sharp, and I knocked the edges off of them just barely with a file. I haven't carried this one much because its so dang big, but it sure is fun to fondle.

Had this Dowell Serpentine Trapper with me all day today! It's a great EDC! Very useful
and nice in pocket... old Ivory Westinghouse micarta feels great when hands are wet from sweating...
