White River Knife and Tool Trailhead Trapper
The Trailhead Trapper is White River Knife and Tool's first folder and a collaborative design by Smith and Sons—built for traditionalists, slipjoint enthusiasts, and those who appreciate custom-quality craftsmanship in a production setting. This USA-made knife features a 3.1-inch CPM S35VN blade at 0.100 inches thick, wire EDM cut and hand-profiled, hardened to 59-60 HRC for exceptional durability and edge retention. At 7.5 inches open, 4.2 inches closed, and just 2.5 ounces, the Trailhead Trapper delivers genuine cutting capability in a genuinely portable package—the perfect size for those who understand that serious slipjoint functionality doesn't require complexity or excess weight.
The Trailhead Trapper represents over a year of development drawing from decades of knife-making experience combined between White River Knife and Tool and Smith and Sons, blending full-time production expertise since 2011 with custom maker heritage since the late '90s. The relieved liners eliminate drag and tang scratching, while each knife is meticulously hand-finished to ensure perfect blade centering and a level backspring across all positions. The result is a slipjoint that walks, talks, and snaps into position with endlessly satisfying engagement—qualities typically reserved for custom knives. The CPM S35VN steel maintains exceptional edge retention without demanding high maintenance. This knife is covered by the White River Knives Lifetime Guarantee. This is custom knife quality meeting production efficiency—proof that rigorous standards and genuine craftsmanship transcend price points.
