KnifeMaker Comment by Tom Hudson on March 28, 2011 at 11:39: OK guy's - The time has come for all you Rough Rider buyers to come out of the "Closet".

I was hammered pretty hard when i added Rough Rider to my line-up of knives that i engrave.

So tell us the what you have aquired from RR. If you have any Rough Riders you have customized, send me a pic & i will feature them on mjy web page - tom
