First Year White Hunter's, Model 6377

The Trapper’s Companion came in two models. The 6385 Right Hand Model and the 6386 Left Hand model. The left hand model is extremely rare, especially in collector condition. Only 1 knife in 10 made was left handed. The Trapper was made from about 1966 through about 1972. Designed for the Trapping community, it never had wide distribution and only a few were made each year. It was certainly not as popular as the Hunter’s Companion knife, a similar design. From the collecting chart for Gutman, the NY distributor for the USA, it was only imported for one year. I do not think that was actually the case as I have knives made in different years in our collection. In any case, it is one of those rare knives that collectors love. It has a beautiful, unique design adding to its desirable qualities that collectors knife like about it. They usually come up for sale on auction sites such as eBay about once or twice a year.
