High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case XX Custom Brian Yellowhorse Butterfly Trapper Purple Spiny Oyster Limited Edition blends masterful custom craftsmanship with classic American pocketknife design. Designed and handmade by renowned knifemaker Brian Yellowhorse, this Trapper combines the timeless functionality of a dual-blade knife with a striking, collector-worthy aesthetic. It’s built to perform in hand while standing out as a showpiece in any collection.
Both the clip point and spey blades are mirror polished Tru-Sharp surgical steel, offering corrosion resistance, excellent edge retention, and easy sharpening. Traditional nail nicks provide smooth, reliable deployment, while the clip point handles precise cutting tasks and the spey blade adds versatile utility for everyday or specialty use. Each blade reflects the attention to detail and fine finish that distinguishes a custom piece from standard production knives.
The handles are crafted from purple spiny oyster, giving the knife a vibrant, iridescent look that changes subtly in different lighting. Brass pins and liners ensure solid construction, while nickel silver bolsters add strength and a polished, refined appearance. An inlaid nickel silver shield completes the design, reinforcing its identity as a premium Case XX collectible. Measuring 4.13 inches closed and weighing 4 ounces, this Trapper offers a substantial, balanced feel in the hand while remaining comfortable for carry or use.
Proudly made in the USA, this knife combines traditional American cutlery heritage with the artistry of a modern custom knifemaker.
