High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Rough Rider Trapper Damascus Mixed G-10 is built for folks who want a traditional pocketknife that doesn’t shy away from modern toughness. Based on the time-proven Trapper pattern, this knife delivers the size, balance, and dual-blade versatility that have earned the Trapper its reputation, while upgrading the handle materials for everyday reliability. It’s a working knife first, with enough visual appeal to stand out without feeling overdone.
This Trapper features a pair of 3.12-inch stainless steel blades in the classic clip and spey configuration. The clip point blade is the workhorse of the pair, offering a sharp tip and long cutting edge that’s well suited for general utility tasks, from opening boxes to cutting rope or preparing food. The spey blade adds control and versatility, with a broader tip and smooth curve that shines during lighter, more precise cuts. Both blades open with traditional nail nicks, keeping operation simple, familiar, and dependable.
As a slipjoint, this knife relies on a strong backspring rather than a lock. That design keeps it legal in many areas and true to traditional pocketknife roots. The spring tension is firm and confident, giving you a reassuring snap on open and close while maintaining safe, controlled use. Stainless steel construction helps resist corrosion and makes upkeep easy, even when the knife sees regular carry and use.
The Mixed G-10 handle brings modern durability into the equation. G-10 is known for its strength, moisture resistance, and secure grip, making it an excellent choice for a knife that’s meant to be carried daily. The mixed pattern adds visual contrast and texture, giving the handle a distinctive look while remaining practical in hand. Nickel silver bolsters reinforce the ends of the handle, adding strength and a touch of classic polish that balances the modern scales.
At 4.12 inches closed and 7.24 inches overall, this Trapper offers a full, comfortable grip without feeling bulky in the pocket. It carries easily, deploys smoothly, and performs reliably when it’s time to get to work. Whether you’re a traditional knife enthusiast looking for modern materials or someone who needs a dependable everyday carry with proven design, the Rough Rider Trapper Damascus Mixed G-10 delivers honest performance with rugged style.
