Case XX Custom Brian Yellowhorse Butterfly Trapper Genuine Mammoth Ivory Limited Edition Folding Knife YH221

The Case XX Custom Brian Yellowhorse Butterfly Trapper Genuine Mammoth Ivory Limited Edition is a powerful example of traditional American knife making elevated by rare materials and master-level craftsmanship. Built on the iconic Trapper pattern, this knife carries a legacy of hard use, honest design, and enduring appeal, while its custom construction places it firmly in the realm of serious collectibles. It’s a piece that respects history and commands attention the moment it’s in hand.

The clip point and spey blades are crafted from mirror polished Tru-Sharp surgical steel, delivering excellent corrosion resistance, dependable edge retention, and easy maintenance. The bright polish enhances the clean lines of each blade, while traditional nail nicks preserve the authentic slipjoint action that Case XX collectors expect. At 4.13 inches closed and weighing 4 ounces, this Trapper offers a solid, reassuring feel that balances pocket carry with substance.

What truly sets this knife apart is its handle material. Genuine mammoth tusk ivory is a prehistoric natural material recovered from ancient remains, prized for its creamy coloration, organic texture, and subtle grain patterns formed over thousands of years. Each piece of ivory is unique, ensuring no two knives are ever the same. The result is a handle that feels alive with history, blending natural elegance with unmistakable rarity. Brass pins and liners add warmth and strength, while nickel silver bolsters and an inlaid nickel silver shield complete the knife with classic durability and refined contrast.

Designed and handmade by renowned custom knifemaker Brian Yellowhorse, this limited edition Trapper reflects his signature blend of traditional patterns and elevated materials. Proudly made in the USA, it stands as a testament to American craftsmanship and the enduring appeal of heirloom-quality knives.
