The Case 55230 Pocket Worn Mahogany Bone Trapper delivers classic American craftsmanship with a distinctive aged appearance that appeals to collectors and everyday carry enthusiasts. This traditional two-blade folding knife features genuine mahogany bone handles that showcase natural grain patterns unique to each piece.
What Makes This Different
The pocket worn finish sets this trapper apart from standard Case knives by providing an authentic aged look straight from the factory. Unlike heavily polished alternatives, the subdued finish reduces glare and provides better grip security in wet conditions. The mahogany bone handle material offers superior durability compared to synthetic alternatives while maintaining the classic aesthetic that Case collectors value.

The high-carbon stainless steel blades hold a keen edge through extended use while resisting corrosion in humid environments.
