My father, the late Jim Parker, and Charlie Dorton were great friends. Charlie and my dad dealt for years as they were both instrumental in the development of the Case Classic program. Blue Grass Cutlery holds the license for these Winchester knives and when Charlie was a partner in Blue Grass, he told my father that this Genuine Bone used on these late 1980’s produced knives, was actually antique age Genuine Bone that he acquired from the Utica Knife Factory. Dorton and George Smith loaded up barrels of this old bone and transported it off the premises of the Utica Factory. This dates the bone used on this knife as being from the 1910-1937 era.  

This 1987 issue United States manufactured Winchester “Dixie Switch” Trapper is in mint condition in the original issue Winchester factory box and being offered at No Reserve. Yes a True No Reserve Auction Where The Bidding Starts At .99 Cents. Thanks for your bids, we appreciate it.
