The Case Mini Trapper 47491 pairs a 2.75-inch TruSharp Wharncliffe blade with a Smooth Blue Curly Oak Wood handle, a single-blade take on the Mini Trapper pattern with a distinctive figured wood handle and a straight, utility-focused edge.

TruSharp Stainless is Case's proprietary stainless steel blend, a modified 420HC formulation chosen for a balance of easy sharpening and reasonable edge retention rather than a premium powder-metallurgy specification. It won't hold an edge as long as CPM steels used on modern tactical folders, but it's straightforward to touch up on a basic stone or ceramic rod.

The Wharncliffe blade shape has a straight edge that curves only near the tip, with the spine dropping steadily down to meet it, this gives excellent point control for detail work and precise cuts, and the straight edge is well suited to tasks like cutting on a flat surface where a curved belly can lift material unpredictably.

Curly Oak Wood is a natural wood handle material chosen for its figured, wavy grain pattern, here finished in a blue dye that lets the wood's natural figure show through rather than obscuring it, and given a smooth (untextured) surface rather than a jigged pattern.

As a Mini Trapper-pattern knife, this is a traditional slip joint, the single blade is held open by spring tension against the tang and opened by hand via a nail nick, with no locking mechanism.

• Blade: 2.75" TruSharp Stainless Wharncliffe blade, a single-blade configuration with a straight edge and controlled point, easy to sharpen but not built for extreme edge retention.
• Handle: Smooth Blue Curly Oak Wood, a figured natural wood handle finished in blue with an untextured surface.
• Deployment: Traditional slip joint, no lock, nail-nick opening.
• Origin: Made in USA, as stated on the product.
