Craig,

Glad you like it, thanks for the reference on how it appears to you more like an armadillo.  Changes a bit how I was seeing it, because I could not put the samuri reference into context with the knife.

Really glad to know that this RR feels more like it's not only good for the price but a steal for that price.  This speaks volumes for how RR is becoming more and more a quality peice

I'm getting ready to put in a big RR Stockman pattern order. One will be with Armor Hide handles, so, we'll see if I like it as much in person as in pictures.

You also have to hand it to them for thier ability to older patterns and make them fresh looking.  I like that locking trapper and the match strike pull and the open oval just give it a freash new look

You gotta give it to the designers at Rough Riders, they keep coming up with new and interesting materials for their cutlery.

Hey Tobias, I didn't get the ASOL Canoe yet, BUT, I did do some searching for images on google and I found several ASOL Canoe pictures that showed both sides, and they matched very well.

I  have also thought about the Armor Hide. I'm going to have to realize that I can't have everything. I'll be interested in the review of it.

Here are some pics of that locking trapper, Robert. They are not some of my best pics, but here they are.You push down on the second blade to unlock the knife for folding. I like the eye for opening and the wharncliff blade that is on it.

I may pick up the hawkbill in the armor hide but I'm not sure.  I'm also not sure about the whole  "Samaurai" thing but it reminds me of "Steel Warrior".  Hopefully that isn't what they were going for.  When they talked about the knives on Knives Live TV, they said the jig pattern was reminiscent of the old Samurai's suit of armor.  Regardless of how it looks, its is going to be as tough as any other RR bone handle, which in itself  is not a bad thing.  I would guess the box was design by Brian Wilhoite but can't say for certain.  I wish they would've made a 5 inch toothpick but alas, my pleas fall on deaf ears.

Craig,

Let us know when you get one.  I have not seen the Armor hide in person but would love to hear your ideas when you get it
