Hi guys, I'm not a big RR collector (till now), as far I own only 3. But after I red here about them I ordered a few more ;-)

I'll show you my few RR soon on the Show thread.

As some of you, I'm also very astonished about their quality. These are definitely not China crap.

I think what really hurt was watching a knife seller go out of business.

Comment by Ken Spielvogel on November 5, 2013 at 13:59

Tobias, no matter, you made a good buy - don't feel guilty.

Comment by Jason Oncedisturbed Riley on November 5, 2013 at 13:35

Tobias, sounds like an awesome score you got. Wish we had finds like that as the swap markets have slim pickings over here lol

I'll need to look at it again.  Like I said I got the Stockman a while back.   A guy was going out of business (an online seller of all sorts of Rough Riders) I picked up a good five or six knives and the kit for around $25.  I recall the purchase also included  a black pearl sleeve board whittler and a red bone marlin spike. Can't recall the rest but I felt guilty  buying them for so little.

There is an instructional page included in the kit as to what tools are needed, from memory there was nothing overly special required

Wow, that is very special, Tobias. How much did it cost? Those are some neat kits also, thanks for the info.

As long as it is not an assisted blade we can
