Although an Import Rough Rider Brand by Smoky Mountain Knife Works continues to get high marks as a favorite for collectors.

Many of the Rough Rider patterns I own are similar to some of the Case patterns I own. When comparing the quality, fit and finish these knives are a great value. What really makes them great is I…Continue

I like the splotchy dye job too, JJ. Where did you find the spelling on a word like "Splotchy"? You blew me away with that one..lol
Billy, the bone was supposed to look like the Ladies Leg. Splotchy dye job gives it some character.
I like that Midnight Swirl Toothpick.
JJ,
I like all the girls knives too. On yours, can we now call it a wharnie foot?
Hey, I love that Canoe Whittler, I like those scales too, JJ.
Not really smooth, Jan, just smoothed a bit and rounded the edges of the scales (kinda like the CASE Pocket Worn knives). Here it is, after I finished sanding the scales. I also took some of the sharp edges and corners off of the bolsters.
Compare it to my other one. See also the modification to the sheeps foot?
JJ, would love to see that whittlin buddy with smooth handles. I can see that knife being very user friendly with peach pits
Billy, I'll probably never see the knives that I got for the girls again, to take pics of them, but I'll try. Looking at the pics at SMKW, my locking canoe (Item # RR1078) is pretty similar to the pic, with the irregular dye. I'll post a pic when we get some sun. About finished smoothing out the scales on the whittlin buddy. Still trying to decide if I want to modify the sheeps-foot or not.
