Elegant indeed! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: But only a Texan would consider 4 1/8" trapper a "little" pocket knife! :p

But it's the perfect size! I notice that the younger generation generally carry their smartphones in their pockets (I use a belt holster), and a trapper is much smaller than a smartphone. My trapper weighs only 3.8 oz, two ounces less than my iPhone 7. It's more noticeable in the pocket than a Vic Classic, but when I carry a Vic nowadays I carry a Tinker or a Spartan, which are comparable to the trapper in size and weight, I think. At least to me any differences are negligible. But I'm from Texas! :)

I found a Wikipedia page about declarations of independence, and it looks like Texas has TWO of them, one directed at Mexico and one directed at USA. A few other former Confederate states apparently have declarations of independence for their secession from the Union.

I was only referring to the first one in 1836, when Texas became an independent republic.

I just assumed it was because @5K Qs hasn't seen the Moore Maker Jumbo Trapper! That thing is a beast, but the one I saw wasn't as well made as my 4 1/8". Other than secession from the Union, I believe Texas is the only state with a declaration of independence. Because TX is of course the only state that was a country when we entered the Union.

Not about me today. Texas Gulf Coast weather + hours on the mower means Ti and CF with a pocket clip. But, Kim is working with a couple of nice traditionals today. Spinning some yarn this morning with the MOP Case Mini Trapper I got her for Christmas.

Kim needed new pruning tools. This showed up in the mail Friday :). Case Hawkbill in amber jigged bone.
