Description
The Roper Rattler Muskrat has twin satin 1065 carbon steel clip blades in a black and tan micarta handle with stainless bolsters and an inlay shield, closing to 4.5 inches.
The muskrat is the odd one among traditional patterns: two identical clip blades, one at each end, where every other two-blade knife has two different shapes. The logic was practical. A trapper working through a day's catch could use one blade until it dulled and switch to the second rather than stopping to sharpen.
1065 carbon steel takes a keener edge than stainless and comes back faster on a stone, developing a patina with use. Micarta rather than the bone usual on this pattern grips harder as hands get damp and holds its shape where bone would move with moisture. Explore more Traditional Knives.
- Twin identical clip blades, unique to the muskrat pattern
- Second blade lets a trapper work on without sharpening
- 1065 carbon steel takes a keener edge than stainless
