Description: White Tail Trapper Knife Laminated Panels Pakistan Mississippi ca. 1985 PK445 OUR #PK445 Item Description We fondly remember our good old friend, Mr. James Hollis Glover, late of Baldwyn, Mississippi. James Hollis traded with us from shortly after we opened in the 1950s until his untimely death a decade ago. More than any other American, James Hollis was responsible for a massive wave of Pakistani-made pocket knives that fairly saturated the Southern and Midwestern markets during the early 1990s. He even sent his supplier plant managers by to visit us when they were in country. Mr. Glover’s knife brand was White Tail Cutlery, slick made and good looking knives with his trademark inked on the obverse of the main blade and the word Pakistan on the reverse. Laminated Micarta handle panels were as good as anybody’s, even though the steel strength left something to be desired. Here is one of Mr. Glover’s best and most popular creations, a Coke-bottle patterned Trapper made much on the order of the Case 6254 with four brass panel rivets on each side and the Deer Head, White Tail logo on the obverse panel. Bolster, blade, liner, and Back spring material are all brushed stainless. Blades are, as the photos show, conventional clip main blade and extended spey or skinner secondary blade. The Clip blade measures 3 3/8 from heel to point, and the spey blade 3 1/2 inches. This knife is mint, and those measurements are factory original. Back spring strength is excellent, and fit and finish is better than other Pakistani knives from the period. The present flood of Chinese made knives, of course, spelled the death knell not only for White Tail Cutlery and Pakistani producers, but also for almost all U.S. Made modestly priced cutlery. We’re offering this fine Pakistani Mississippian specimen, however, for only $ 26.00. Buy 3 Ships Free: Combine any 3 of our items, and get free shipping. Excludes long gun barrels and gun cases.
