The RoseCraft Blades Cockleburr Creek Trapper is our take on a traditional Trapper pattern. This two-bladed slip joint features a 3.25″ D2 clip point main blade and a 3.25″ D2 spey blade, both with heavy swedging, half stops, and brushed satin finishes. The covers are rosewood, with brushed steel bolsters, steel liners, nickel silver pins, and the stainless steel Rosebud shield. It’s 4.125″ closed, 7.4″ open (main blade), and weighs 3.9oz. Based on a traditional Trapper pattern, re-imagined by Andy Armstrong.

Any hints if there might be Cockleburr Creek Trappers with stag or bone?

[Steve Warden]

Still waiting for them to come out with a stockman.
I have their Otter Borlow. Great fit and finish. Very pleased to have it.

I don't know any plans for stag or bone at this time Modern, but I will ask Andy. Either would look great on that Trapper!

[Corn Creek Cutlery]

Steve, DogLegg, and Tom ... I agree!
And Steve, I will ask Andy about a Stockman also.

I can add RoseCraft's General Manager and Lead Designer, Andy Armstrong, while working for SMKW, designed most or all of the Rough Ryder Reserve (RRR) knives in the RRR line's early years. After leaving SMKW he started or was involved in starting RoseCraft Blades. Consequently, there are some common design features in RRR knives and RoseCraft's knives. Both use brushed or satin finished D2 steel and are very picky about fit and finish.

Thank-you for the heads up. Unexpected repair bills make waiting until later in the year for stag Trappers fit my budget well.
