SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case "Snakeskin" Trapper in Red Smooth Bone with Diamond Shield is a striking take on a time-tested American classic. Built on Case’s legendary Trapper pattern, this folder offers the kind of practical utility and refined craftsmanship that’s made Case XX a trusted name in working pockets for generations. With bold style and dependable materials, it’s as capable in the field as it is admired in the collection.
This knife features a duo of full-length blades: a 3.27" clip point and a 3.25" spey, both crafted from Case's proprietary Tru-Sharp Surgical Steel. Engineered for superior edge retention and corrosion resistance, Tru-Sharp ensures these blades hold up through repeated tasks—whether it’s skinning, slicing rope, or handling everyday jobs around camp or shop. Each blade opens with a traditional nail nick and folds cleanly into the frame with smooth slipjoint action.
The handle is where the “Snakeskin” Trapper really stands apart. Made from rich red smooth bone, it’s polished to a deep, glassy finish that’s easy on the eyes and comfortable in the hand. The scales are accented with subtle, snakeskin-like texturing along the spine, giving this knife just enough grip and visual edge without being overdone. A polished nickel silver Diamond Shield inlay sits proudly on the front scale, a nod to Case’s legacy of craftsmanship and attention to detail.
Measuring 4.12" closed, this knife fits securely in the pocket or belt pouch without bulk, yet provides enough length and leverage to handle tough tasks. Brass pins and liners, along with nickel silver bolsters, round out the traditional build and add a refined contrast to the vivid red bone scales.
Whether you're a Case enthusiast, a working knife user, or a collector who appreciates vintage patterns with a modern flair, the "Snakeskin" Trapper delivers with both style and substance. Made with pride in the USA, it's a piece of functional heritage you’ll reach for again and again. Order it today from SMKW!
