The Cold Steel Trapper 3" folding knife is a no-nonsense pocket blade built on a time-tested slip-joint design. It pairs two distinct blades—a clip-point for piercing and general cutting work, and a spey blade for detail tasks like skinning and processing game—both folding from the same end of the grip. The brown jigged bone handles deliver authentic aesthetics and sure grip, even with gloves on, while polished steel bolsters add durability and visual balance. This is the kind of knife that earns its place in a hunter's or outdoorsman's pocket, though its versatility makes it equally at home in the kitchen, workshop, or camp.
What makes the Trapper enduring isn't hype—it's function. The two-blade layout gives you options without bulk, and the 8Cr13MoV stainless steel holds an edge reasonably well while resisting corrosion in variable conditions. The bone scales feel good in your hand and age gracefully with use. Closed, it measures 4.125 inches, compact enough for everyday carry but with enough handle authority for real work. Cold Steel built this knife without unnecessary frills, which is exactly why it works.
Whether you're breaking down game in the field, processing a fish, or handling camp chores, the Trapper's traditional proportions and proven blade geometry solve problems quickly. It's a knife that respects the user's time and the job at hand.

| Blade 1 Length | 3.3" |
| Blade 2 Length | 3.3" |
| Blade Material | 8Cr13MoV Stainless Steel |

| Pattern | Jack Knife (Slip Joint) |
The clip-point blade is your all-purpose cutter—sharp, direct, and good for piercing and slicing. The spey blade is shorter and curves inward slightly, designed for controlled skinning, gutting, and detail work where you want precision over power. Having both in one knife gives you reach without adding bulk.
Yes. The spey blade makes it well-suited to field dressing and processing game, while the clip-point handles butchering and general camp work. The compact size and proven design have made the Trapper a traditional choice for hunters for good reason.
Bone is a time-honored handle material that weathers and ages with use. The 8Cr13MoV stainless steel won't rust, but you should dry the knife after wet exposure to maintain the bone. Over time, the bone develops character and patina—many users prefer it that way.
The Trapper is a single-purpose tool designed to cut well. Unlike multi-tools, it has no pliers or other implements—just two good blades and a slim profile. If you prioritize a sharp blade and traditional design over gadgetry, this approach wins.
