That is a cool looking old trap.
The springs look to be forged ,probably made by a blacksmith back in the day.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Very cool old blacksmith made trap. The fine folks over on the Trap Collectors forum here will tell you all you need to know about it. I would suggest making a post there.

A Bruce fella on the trap collectors FB page figured that too. Blacksmith possibly 1840-1880.
