Compact, capable, and undeniably classic, the Bear & Son Little Trapper Red Stag Bone is a pocket knife that embodies timeless American craftsmanship. Proudly made in the USA, this traditional two-blade trapper is an ideal everyday companion for those who appreciate old-school reliability wrapped in rugged elegance. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or simply want a reliable tool that looks as good as it performs, the Little Trapper delivers.
This knife features two blades crafted from tough 1095 carbon steel—a favorite among traditional knife users for its edge retention and ease of sharpening. The satin finish on both the 2.25-inch clip point and spey blades adds a clean, refined look while offering light corrosion resistance. Long pulls on each blade give you a solid grip when opening, reinforcing the knife’s practical, work-ready nature. Both blades are perfectly sized for light cutting tasks like whittling, slicing, and precision work, making the Little Trapper an excellent choice for everyday carry.
Where this knife really turns heads is in the handle. The red stag bone scales are richly textured and beautifully colored, offering a warm, rustic aesthetic that looks even better with time and use. Each piece is accented with polished nickel silver bolsters, brass liners, and nickel silver pins for a striking contrast that’s both traditional and upscale. A round nickel silver shield completes the look, letting you know this is a Bear & Son original through and through.
At just 3 inches closed and 5.25 inches overall, this pocket knife is compact enough to carry discreetly but solid enough to feel like a real tool in hand. It weighs in at 3.3 ounces, offering a satisfying heft without ever feeling bulky. Slip it into your pocket or tuck it into a pouch—it’s designed to be there when you need it, without getting in the way.
The Little Trapper is more than just a knife; it’s a nod to generations of American knife-making tradition. Bear & Son has built a reputation for quality, and this knife stands proudly in that legacy. It’s the kind of piece that gets passed down, remembered, and appreciated—both for how it looks and how it performs.
