Comment by Tobias Gibson on October 17, 2011 at 5:58: So far, I've seen congress and trapper. I've asked RR on Facebook for more details.

Comment by Billy Oneale on October 15, 2011 at 18:26: Thank you, Jan.

Comment by Jan Carter on October 15, 2011 at 6:50: I think I may need the whole Tobacco bone line for my son. Of course I would find it hard to give them away so maybe I need a couple of each. Very nice collection Billy

Featured Comment by Craig Henry on October 13, 2011 at 23:37: I don't want them all, but I want to get at least one of those Brian Yellowhorse knives. Hmmm....maybe the Trapper.

Comment by Billy Oneale on October 13, 2011 at 22:44: More pics loaded tonight.

Featured Comment by Craig Henry on October 13, 2011 at 1:18: Thanks for the heads up Billy. I go and look at your RR photos pretty regular.

I've been trying not to get any lockback knives lately, but, I think I need one of those swing guards in tobacco bone......or amber bone.......or both.

It's like a disease.

Comment by Billy Oneale on October 12, 2011 at 22:30: it's hard to resist 8 or 9 good $10.00 to $12.00 knives when you have an extra $100.00.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on October 12, 2011 at 21:41: Billy, Temptation may get the better of me because of all those wonderful pictures. I really try to just collect specific patterns but so many knives, so many pretty colors, styles, handle material for so little money. Very hard to resist! Thanks for sharing. Not to exercise a little will power and not go to bed instead of eBay or SMKW.

Comment by Billy Oneale on October 12, 2011 at 21:24: Well, I just uploaded some more of my Rough Riders into my RR photo album on my page. I may get them all on there by the end of this year.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on October 12, 2011 at 17:55: Just finished the review of the Locking Canoe Whittler. (see Discussion Forum.)

Moving on to my next Review about the Rough Rider Scout knife.

Here is a sneak-peek at what you'll see:In this review, the humble Rough Rider will be up against Boy Scout Knives, both modern and vintage, the Victorinox Pioneer and the Camillus Demo Knife.

Did someone say Case? The RR Scout is patterned after the Case 6445 pattern Scout knife. I don't have $150 to buy the discontinued knife so my $80 Scout Jr. will need to be its stand in.
