What's a 'Trapper Keeper'?

I'm re-watching that old Southpark episode...

Trapper Keeper: Mead's Answer to the Swiss Army Knife.

wikipedia entry.

Official site.

We don't have them in the UK - of course now, it being stationery - I think I want one.

all american kids of a certain age had trapper keepers. you simply couldn't show up to school with out one. There were guards.

Ok. not really. But you were considered uncool if the picture on your tk didn't express your personality.
