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. ;-)

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