Tobias,

Thanks so much for starting this discussion.  I've just started collecting RR knives and the list and pictures will be really useful!  I'm currently carrying two: the Armor Hide Canoe and the small Black Bone Stockman (love the filework on that one!).  Next week will probably be different. ;-)

-ds

Over the years, they've had 15 - 16 different whittler patterns.

great discussion and lets see if we can come up with the rest!

The locking canoe lockbacks were whittlers

RR 1077 --Amber Jigged Bone

RR 1078  --Outdoorsman (tabacco smooth bone with acorn shield)

RR 1079 -- Yellow Composition

RR 1076 -- Red Jigged Bone

Five Five inch toothpicks from some of the more popular series

RR526 -- Sawcut bone

RR917 -- Stoneworx

RR711 -- Rifleman

RR1059 -- A Stroke of Luck

RR731 -- Long Rifle

I've got most of the whitlers.  Think I'm missing 2.

Bark pearl and imitation malachite are a couple I have that are not on your list

They made a Bowie series in sawcut bone. It had a bowie for the shield

Lemonade and hot pink series
