The tip of the pen blade was up against the sheep's foot in the closed position, and the sheep's foot was crinked over so far against the master clip that the clip would not close without pushing it down. I debated on sending it back to Case, but decided to take a chance and use my old cutler steady and a brass mallet to lightly tap-tap-tap the blades into position. Luckily it worked, and now all three blades close with a nice click and virtually no blade rub. I know the 32 is a narrow frame, but the blades should still be able to snap closed. Now that it is sorted out, I really like the knife.

It's true, at one time I was hunting for the original 2014 Bubba Gum 6107W (with the Lady Case blade etch) when I was trying to collect every Case _107W ever made (unsuccessful). Surprisingly (to me, at least) that particular model ended up becoming quite a collector item with some selling on eBay for several hundred dollars. I really don't expect the 2025 version (without the fancy blade etch) to repeat the fame and glory of its predecessor, but if it does, the friend I already gave it to will be very happy!

Here's one that I recently picked up that I'm keeping for myself

2018 Case T.B.101028W Green Sparkle Teardrop

You and me both, Philip Although, personally I prefer bone to Delrin handles; but, I do agree with you about the small size

Nice pick up and refurbisment job, Tom I think you will find that despite the larger size, the light weight of that trapper makes iit a comfortable EDC and you'll likely discover the bigger blades are more useful for a wider variety of tasks than the smaller blades on the knives you're more accustomed to carrying. Looking forward to a complete report of your trial run in a week.
