Description:
CAPER-The knife for removing trophies: There are many hunters who want to preserve the memory of an excellent shoot and if the majority turns to a professional taxidermist, some of them do it themselves. On the other hand, it is not uncommon to go hunting abroad where it is not always possible to have the trophy prepared. In this case it is essential to do certain things yourself, because transporting the animal's head without ridding it of anything that will quickly generate bad odors is not possible. There is therefore a type of knife specially designed for this purpose, with a thin and pointed blade which allows a perfect and precise cut, and to penetrate into the smallest nooks and crannies to crush the flesh. The handle is also thin and its end is sometimes curved so that it fits well in the hand. In the United States, where he was born, he is called the "Caper", in France, Jean Tanazacq baptized him "Depiauteur." The model offered here is a true vintage knife has it bears the rare double markings on blade, (map of France and the renowned wild boar). All of Tanazacq's vintage models with these 2 markings date back to 1979-1984 when Tanazacq stopped using both logos, they are the most coveted knives today amongst collectors. This particular model is rarely seen today, making it a rarity on the marketplace. The "Caper" is essential if you only want to collect the horns of the animal. Blade is 3" from 440C stainless steel stock, large single brass guard, rosewood handle with finger grips, as it is a full tang constructed model, wrist thong. Made in 1979 with a tawny brown leather scabbard with the rare wild baor logo in the center. An exceptional piece ready to be put to hash task on the field! Free shipping USPS with tracking # and signature required.
