Platts Jig Yellow Bone Trapper

When you pick up one of our new Platts Jig Yellow Bone pocket folders, you step into a world where tradition and innovation collide. Each is built with rugged stainless steel blades, engineered for durability and precision cutting. But it’s the knife’s handle that tells a deeper story of time-honored craftsmanship. The jigging style on the yellow bone handle is actually a tribute to the work of Charles Platts, a prominent cutler from Sheffield, England who brought his knifemaking skills to America at the end of the 19th century and later joined his knife company with W.R.Case and Sons Cutlery Company in Bradford, Pennsylvania in 1905.

The Trapper gets its name from the consumer it was designed for. Because of its basic trapping and skinning blades and its light weight, it is a must-have knife for those who trap small game. It is a jack knife with two full length blades; a slender Clip and a long Spey. The Clip blade is commonly used as a multi-purpose blade and preferred for detail work while the Spey blade is commonly used as an all-purpose utility blade.
