I like single blade Mini Trappers. Unfortunately, I have not had very good luck with Bear & Son knives...mostly fit & finish issues which probably wouldn't be a big issue for an EDC user but, for me as a collector, my Mini-Ts are all safe queens for the most part.

Here's the latest to join The Monkey's Mini-T Mountain.

Very nice Tom. Beautiful blue on that one and I've always liked the Case red shields.

Here's an unusual Mini-T: A single blade factory sample Queen #51 with Rosewood handle. OCD Mini-T Monkey is all in a tizzy because the "Big Q" tang stamp dates this one as a 1945-1955 release, and yet it came in a white (DFC era) Schatt & Morgan box with an ID label that is correct for this knife. It certainly doesn't look 66-76 years old, so how that happened is indeed a mystery.

Unless this is actually a "Small Q" stamp from the 1971 transition period--which would make more sense, but still doesn't explain the S&M box.

Can't beat the #51 - love that medium jack pattern

Just came by this mini trapper today. Single blade slimline with walnut handle. Fit and finish are excellent. Gator snap. Bear & Son. This brand is underrated in my opinion.

Really like that pattern & B&S did well with that one. Is that current production or an older one ?

A gift from ~Q~. I don't know how to adequately thank him.

Thank you David (& once again, thank you ~Q~). It's better in hand than it is in the picture. In hand, you can feel the quality. It's killer.

Yup Jarhead, ole Q sure knows how to drop a round. She's a lovely gal ole boy, monkey gets his banana.

Here's one you won't see very often: a single-blade Queen #51 with Walnut handle and arrowhead shield. A genuine "Unicorn" (The Monkey LOVES Mini-T Unicorns!!! )

Beautiful wood and knife.

[jerryd6818]

This one came to stay with me yesterday. It's nothing special but it fattens up the pile.

Cool looking Mini-T Jerry. Hey, its a Case, It's a Mini-T, one of the best size Trappers IMHO, it's Amber Bone, that's pretty special to me.

[jerryd6818]

Thanks Smitty. I hope it didn't sound like I was implying it's something bad. For me it's just kind of ho-hum.

[doglegg]

You old knife connoisseur. Your nothing special and your ho hum testifies to your experienced taste and honed appreciation. To us peasants it's a great knife.
