SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Cooper Cutlery Battle Axe Trapper Folding Pocket Knife with a Black Oak Wood handle is a fine example of traditional American craftsmanship built for those who expect reliability in a timeless design. Made in the USA, this knife follows the classic Trapper pattern, a style long favored by outdoorsmen, collectors, and everyday users alike. Its straightforward, no-nonsense build reflects Cooper Cutlery’s dedication to quality and heritage, making it as dependable in the field as it is admirable in a collection.
At 4 inches closed and 7.25 inches overall, the Battle Axe Trapper strikes a perfect balance between portability and performance. It houses two blades, a clip point and a spey, each measuring 3.30 inches. Crafted from polished stainless steel, the blades not only look sharp but also deliver the corrosion resistance and cutting strength needed for a wide range of daily tasks. The plain edges make for clean, precise cuts, while the traditional nail nick pull opener ensures simple, time-tested blade deployment.
The handle sets this model apart with its black oak wood scales. Smooth and sturdy, the oak wood offers both natural beauty and durability, giving the knife a rugged yet refined appearance. The warm character of the wood contrasts with the polished blades and bolsters, creating a tool that’s as much about aesthetics as it is about function. The slip joint mechanism provides reliable tension to hold the blades in place during use, honoring the traditional pocketknife design without the complexity of modern locking systems.
This knife is ambidextrous, ensuring usability for both right- and left-handed individuals. Its slim profile makes it easy to slip into a pocket, while the solid construction and comfortable feel in hand deliver confidence during use. Whether carried as an everyday tool or set aside as a collectible piece, the Battle Axe Trapper embodies Cooper Cutlery’s mission to preserve the spirit of American knife-making. Each detail, from the polished stainless blades to the finely finished oak wood handle, is a reminder that tradition and performance don’t have to be compromised.
