We hit the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing mission this month and Case has released two Case Moon Landing Anniversary Trappers to commemorate the event. Decades ago, we watched as people stepped foot on the moon for the first time. The freaking moon! That’s reason enough to release some awesome knives. These trappers are an awesome way to pay tribute to those that went above and beyond.
You’ve probably already read our coverage of Case’s awesome astronaut space machete, which is awesome on its own, but these Apollo 11 trappers are a bit more pocket-friendly. The Case Man on the Moon 50th Anniversary Trapper Gift Set comes with a standard Case natural smooth bone trapper that’s embellished with an extremely well done Moon surface graphic and 50th Anniversary text. It has mirror polished Tru-Sharp stainless steel blades etched with “Apollo 11- July 20, 1969” on the clip point and “First steps on the moon” on the spey blade. To complete this set, you also get a certificate of authenticity, a collectible jewel box, and a Case collectible medallion.
