Looking for a high quality trapper with guthook? Look no further. This fine hunting trapper knife was made for A.G. Russell by Tak Fukuta in Seki, Japan circa 1997. The 4 1/2" trapper features beautiful mirror polished AUS-8 blades with excellent snap opening and closing and at half-way, nickel silver bolsters, and burlwood handles. The hook if very thick. Tak Fukuta was the first Japanese member of the American Knife Maker's Guild, and apprentice to Bob Loveless. He hand crafted fine quality knives that impressed his mentor.

After his passing, several vintage old stock models were found at his warehouse. This is one of these rare finds.
