Case Trapper 2254 Black Synthetic "Uphold the 2nd Amendment" ~ Vintage 1994
The Case Trapper 2254 Black Synthetic "Uphold the 2nd Amendment" is a vintage, dual-blade pocket knife manufactured by W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Co. in 1994, uniquely distinguished by its thematic commemorative theme and its 6-dot tang stamp.
Because Case routinely releases limited commemorative runs, values shift significantly depending on production volume. This knife has two major advantages: it belongs to a highly sought-after political/historical category, and Serial #015 is an extremely early number. Early low digits (typically under #100) command a premium from Case collectors compared to standard un-serialized or high-serialized models.
Specifications & Features
- Pattern Number (2254): The code breaks down to define its exact build. The first 2 signifies its synthetic handle material; the second 2 denotes it has two blades; and 54 is Case's factory designation for the classic Trapper pattern.
- Dating (6 Dot Stamp): Case’s specialized dating system utilizes dots on the tang stamp to denote the specific year of production within a decade. For the 1990s era, a 6-dot configuration explicitly verifies it was made in 1994.
- Handle Material: Formed from durable, impact-resistant Black Synthetic Delrin. Depending on the exact run, it typically features a smooth or light-textured finish with an embedded shield or blade etch reading "UPHOLD THE 2ND AMENDMENT".
- Blade Configuration: Houses two full-length blades—a primary Clip Point blade for precision cutting and a secondary Spey blade traditionally utilized for skinning. The blades are forged from either Case's Tru-Sharp Surgical Stainless Steel or Carbon Steel.
- Frame & Hardware: Constructed with traditional brass liners and pin construction, capped off by polished nickel silver bolsters on both ends.
- Dimensions: Measures exactly 4 1/8 inches (4.125") long when closed and weighs roughly 4 ounces.
- Never used, carried or sharpened
- Original presentation box
