The Case XX Red Pickbone Indian Head Nickel Trapper is a collectible-grade traditional folding knife that blends American heritage styling with precision craftsmanship and timeless functionality. It’s built for collectors and users alike who value authentic materials, detailed finishing, and a strong sense of historical character.
Its dual blades feature a clip point and spey configuration, both crafted from mirror polished Tru-Sharp surgical stainless steel. Known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance, Tru-Sharp steel delivers reliable performance while maintaining a refined, polished appearance. Nail nicks provide traditional, controlled opening, preserving the classic slip joint feel that defines the Trapper pattern.
The handles are made from jigged red pickbone, offering a rich, textured surface that enhances grip while delivering a deep, heritage-inspired look. Set into the handle is a nickel silver oval Case Script shield, reinforcing its traditional identity and collectible appeal. Nickel silver bolsters add strength at the ends while providing a polished contrast to the warm red bone scales.
Additional detailing elevates this piece into true collector territory. The nickel silver bolsters are stamped with a serial number, and the knife carries the pattern number 6254 SS. Both blades are etched with “Indian Head Nickel” and “American Classic Coins,” tying the design directly to its commemorative theme. It comes complete with an Indian Head Nickel, Certificate of Authenticity, and a black presentation box marked with the same theme, reinforcing its limited, collectible nature.
At 4.13" closed and weighing 4oz, it maintains a solid, traditional feel in the hand while remaining pocket-friendly for carry or display. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects long-standing craftsmanship and attention to detail that has defined Case for generations.
