The Cold Steel Trapper Mini delivers traditional two-blade versatility in a compact everyday carry package. This classic slip-joint folder combines the practicality of clip and spey blades with modern materials for reliable daily use.
What Makes This Different
Unlike single-blade folders, the Trapper Mini provides dedicated cutting solutions with its dual-blade configuration. The clip blade handles general cutting tasks while the spey blade excels at detailed work and skinning operations. The 3Cr13MoV stainless steel construction offers superior corrosion resistance compared to carbon steel alternatives, maintaining sharp edges through extended use.
Key Features
- Dual blade design with 2.6" clip blade and 2.7" spey blade for versatile cutting applications
- 3Cr13MoV stainless steel blades provide excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance
- Brown jigged bone handle scales offer secure grip and traditional aesthetics
- Polished brass bolsters add durability and classic styling
- Traditional slip-joint locking mechanism ensures reliable blade security

Field performance centers on the blade geometry and steel composition working together for consistent cutting ability. The clip blade handles rope, cardboard, and general utility tasks while the spey blade manages precision work like food preparation and detail cutting. The stainless steel construction maintains performance in humid environments and saltwater exposure without the maintenance requirements of carbon steel.
