Ithaca Knickerbocker - Grade 5 Trap - Single barrel - 12ga/32" - used/excellent
Description: The receiver has No. 5 Grade foliate scroll relief engraving throughout with fowl scenes on each side with the birds in molded gold. The exterior of the bottom plate is marked “MADE IN U.S.A. / ITHACA GUN CO. / ITHACA, N.Y.” beneath an engraving of an eagle clutching a bundle of arrows. The stocks are a two piece checkered and carved select walnut with beavertail forend, capped pistol grip, straight comb and ventilated orange rubber Ithaca recoil pad. There is a gold-colored initial plate in the belly (unmarked). The stocks have some light handling marks but are otherwise excellent. The checkering is well defined. There are no chips or cracks. ‘Knick’ shotguns were named after the designer, Frank Knickerbocker, who all but stunned the trap world with the solid construction and smooth pointing of this model. This shotgun was made in 1948 and still looks exquisite. Some of the design team requested making permanent tools for large-scale manufacture of the Knick, but were overruled. Thus, as noted in the book “The Ithaca Gun Company” by Walter Snyder: “Assuming a gun was made for each serial number, 5,740 Knick model Single-Barrel Trap Guns were made to date, each one fitted, stocked, engraved, and finished by hand!”. Not content with just being beautiful and handcrafted, the Knicks were fantastic trap guns. In 1938, Joe Heistead broke 1,404 consecutive targets using a No. 5-E Knick just like this one. This shotgun is an essential part of any Ithaca collection, but would make a good addition to any firearm collection due to its beautiful wood, engraving, and hand crafted action. They, quite literally, don’t make them like this anymore. Make: Ithaca Gun Co. Model: Knick, Grade 5-E Gauge: 12 Gauge Action Type: Single Shot, Top Break Shotgun with Ejector Barrel Length: 32”, Vent-Rib Weight: 8 lb., 8.6 oz. Type of Finish: Blue, Case Color & Gold Finish Originality: Original SOLD |
