Slimline trapped vs medium toothpick?

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Slimline trapped vs medium toothpick?

I love the look of both. My gut says the slimline trapper is a bit more stout and might make a better user. Thoughts please?

Get one of each. Then decide what you like.

There you go, one of each! doglegg always has good advice.
My choice would between the 2 you mentioned would be a two bladed Slimline Trapper like a 62048 Case.

Slimline Trapper, in my opinion.
I personally prefer full-sized trapper or large stockman, but that is me.

I prefer the broader clip master blade in a Slim Line Trapper and do not like the pointy left end of toothpicks wearing holes in my front pants pockets.
