Where do you guys find original bear traps? I know they are not cheap, but looking to get one for my man cave.

Flea markets, gun shows, antique stores, estate sales, crags list, the Trap Shed on this forum.
Lots of places to look.
Before you start looking, become familiar with the names of all the reproduction traps out there. Many of the reproductions are good quality and can easily pass for an old trap if the buyer isn't careful. And sellers may not be 100% honest about how old their traps are.
Good Luck.

Go to the North American Trap collectors site and place a want add.
