Brent Mathison

Description

Brent Mathison builds knives out of Boerne, Texas, as a LoneStar Member of the Texas Knifemakers' Guild — a mark of standing among a community of makers who hold each other to a serious standard. His work favors clean traditional forms, executed with precision and finished by hand. This Trapper is the classic two-blade pattern — a clip point and a spey blade folding from a single spine — built here in CPM154, a stainless steel known for a strong balance of edge retention and corrosion resistance, well suited to a knife meant for daily carry. The handle is vintage paper micarta, a resin-impregnated paper composite prized among collectors for its warm, honeyed color and the way it ages with handling over time — a callback to a material with real history in traditional knifemaking. Sourced directly from Mathison by our custom knife buying team at Blade Show 2026, this Trapper pairs a dependable working steel with a handle material collectors specifically seek out.
