Do let us know if there's anything that we can do.

thanks so much - she has MS - no cure for the damn stuff - it went away for about 25 years or so then about a year ago it came back like a tornado - We have been married almost 49 years - I have always been very protective & able to help fix stuff that comes along in life but with this stuff I'm helpless - every couple of years they come up with something that gives hope but nothing has really helped - the latest stuff  cost $4,000.00 a month! no miss print 4 grand a month & it, like so many of the other snake oils they have come up with can have major side effects  - some times the cure is worse than the problem - tom

You guys are doing a great job keeping the forum going - I thank you for that - MY wife has been having serious health issues & with 6 kids I have been a little busy - I closed down my big web site I used for my engraving - I'm still engraving but it's now a part time deal - No longer doing any firearms - just knives & motorcycle parts for old customers - So keep up the good work - this is one of the few places on the net that we can talk about RR & Marbles knives & not be looked at like a your one step below a bull fighter - again - good job - I look in often - just haven't posted in a while - tom

Yep, you can over do it, I guess.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on April 18, 2012 at 10:42

I'll have to take pics of the two barlows so you can see what I mean.  In the case of the one barlow the specks are about what I expect.  On the other it is over the limit and makes for an ugly handle.

Yea Robert, I guess everyone likes different things. I like the white bone handles without the specks also. I like them both ways. Those Colt knives are hard to beat for the price.

Comment by robert benton on April 17, 2012 at 19:41

Hey,Robert Burris,The colts are indeed very well made.if you decide to buy more for Christmas presents the recipients will be very pleased. and i agree about specks in white bone i like them also.

Tobias, that's funny, because I like those specks in the white bone. I have never hit a bad Rough Rider, I know that it is possible. I like to hear the way SMKW took care of your problem. Hey, Robert Benton, I bought a large Colt Moose and I find it very well made. I may buy more this fall for Chirstmas presents.

It's a good company that will go all the way for a sub $10.00 knife.  Won't mention the company (On the open forum) that I bought the EyeBrand from but do you think I got any satisfaction on my $5o.00 purchase?
