Great quality knives for the money!

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

Comment by Tobias Gibson on October 10, 2011 at 19:53: Funny you should mention the Scout knife. (I've got the amber bone and am waiting for the Red bone to arrive. I've been carrying the amber bone for many months now. As a collector of camp/scout knives, I've got quite a few of them to compare the RR to. Right now I'm finishing up the review on the lock-back canoe whittlers. Next in line is the scout knives. I collect scout knives as a general rule and have quite a few of them. I'll be comparing the RR to the old Camillus demo knife, old and new Boy Scout knives, a Swiss Army knife with similar blades and my Case Scout jr.. I think it should prove interesting. I'll let you know when it is done.

Featured Comment by Craig Henry on October 10, 2011 at 17:50: Getting ready to put in a big RR Trapper order in the coming week or so. I'm getting really turned on with the "Trapper Series" and that Bark Bone, besides other RR Trappers. Man, that "Baby Bullet" RR1030 is kinda hard to find now, but I did find one dealer that still has it....think I might get it.

I always carry at least two knives, and my main knife is usually a small one....I like small knives. Lately I've been carrying a RR (of course) Peanut RR495 along with a RR Utility/Camp knife RR533 in a sheath. But I've been looking at that Tiny Trapper RR1028 in the Bark Bone. I think it would be a good little EDC in place of my Peanut! I'm getting one!

Featured Comment by Craig Henry on October 9, 2011 at 15:43: Have you guys seen "Shar's Scrimshaw"? - http://www.ivoryscrimshaw.com/3.html He does all brands of knives, but, it seems his main brand of knife to work on is RR! I'd love to have a RR Rigger knife with the U.S.S Constitution scrimshaw on it! Some years ago we went all over Old Ironsides. Guys were shorter back in those days...us 6' guys kept hitting our heads! LOL!
