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 moonshiner series better as well, including the blade etch.  I might get the the blue moon canoe, but you are correct, a blue moon is full, not crescent.  And that etch remind me a lot of SKG DreamWorks pictures.

Maybe so, but it still referrs to a full moon.  I liked the shield better on the "Moonshine" series.

There are two definition of a blue moon.  The most common today has a blue moon is the second full moon in the same month.   Next one is August 31, 2112.

Or if you go by an older definition it is the fourth full moon of  a season (summer, Spring, winter or fall)  Going by that defintion, you'll be waiting until August 12, 2013.

 

Either way, "once in a blue moon" means not very often or rare

I realize thar RR wanted to use a shield that they already had,  but isn't a "Blue Moon" a full moon?

Just sayin...

I like the color of the colt model.  I think my son would like this series

Comment by Billy Oneale on June 13, 2011 at 23:35
I haven't really looked at the Blue Moon series closely yet. Just glancing at it, I think I like the color. The Chinese made Remington's, Colt and Rough Rider are all made in the same factory, and as Toby said they are all SMKW trademarks. Well at least the Colt and Rough Rider are. I'm not sure about SMKW having the Remington rights. I think some of the Remington's are SFO's for SMKW. I would like to know for sure about Remington as I collect Remington, especially bullet knives and USA made .

That's a nice job on that 110, Tom. I like the work.

Here one of my Hand-Made - - - - I cloned a Remington 1123 Pattern

Comment by Tobias Gibson on June 13, 2011 at 19:27
I think the Remingtons is somewhat different with it's swedge design but there is little doubt that the Colt and RR Moose are copies of the Remington and the RR and the Colt, both Trademarks of SMKW are clones.  I said the same about the RR and Marbles 5 inch toothpicks.  Only real difference is the furniture (Scales, bolsters, etc.) and the price tag.  Mind you I'm a BIG fan of RR and I would like a few of their knives to be unique to the line.

Most all knives are clones anymore - They had a big pissen match on a sling shot forum I visit - one maker was copying another maker - I explained to the guys that there was only so much you can do with a "Y" or a fork - - I know when I was hand making knives I cloned all the old patterns - guess why i'm not rich - tom
