CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case Trapper Wooden Knife Kit is a build-it-yourself project that gives kids and collectors a safe, hands-on way to recreate a classic pocket knife shape without any sharp edges. This kit swaps the Muskrat pattern for the iconic Trapper design, featuring both clip point and spey blades made from wood. It’s a great gift for young enthusiasts, collectors, or anyone who wants a fun, crafty piece that captures the look of a traditional Case Trapper without being a working blade.
This kit includes wooden blade pieces and wooden handle scales that assemble into a realistic Trapper-style pocket knife. The blades are crafted from wood, so they mimic the profile and feel of real clip point and spey blades but come with zero cutting edge—making the finished product safe for display, play, or classroom use. The wooden components give you a blank canvas to sand, stain, or paint, so the finished knife can look rustic, colorful, or personalized to your preference.
The handle scales are also wooden and designed to reflect the classic Trapper profile, with room for customization and creative finishing. Brass-colored hardware is included to hold everything together, giving the completed knife a traditional appearance while keeping the build process straightforward. Once assembled, the wooden Trapper offers a clean, recognizable pocket knife model that captures the essence of the original design without the risks of a real blade.
When complete, the wooden Trapper makes a great display item, a unique collectible, or a memorable gift for kids and adults alike. It’s a fun way to teach basic assembly skills, introduce the history of traditional pocket knives, and enjoy the satisfaction of building something with your own hands.
