In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on April 12, 2013 at 18:27: Billy, I really like your RR stag lockback with the engraved blade. I seem to miss out on those good deals. Hey Chuck, please post us a picture of one of your Rough Riders. We enjoy seeing everyones, knives.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on March 18, 2013 at 21:00: Not so much a box o knives but a drawer full of Rough Rider Coal Miners. The little coin is a piece of Coal Scrip issued by the Crummies Creek No.1 Coal Company in Cawood Kentucky. The face value on the coin is five cents, good only at the Campany store! (My mom's side of the family is from Cawood, Ky.)

Comment by Tobias Gibson on March 18, 2013 at 20:51: That was rough rider number 101!.

Rough rider number 102 was a souvenir from Ken "Kirk" Benosn!

Comment by Billy Oneale on March 18, 2013 at 20:03: Don't beat yourself up, Toby. I have the same problem sometimes, especially when knife funds are low. Besides, Rough Rider makes a good knife.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on March 18, 2013 at 15:21: I should just give up. I've been trying real hard to buy more American made knives but then Rough Rider comes along and offers this Half-Hawk in the Coal Miner Series. (as well as in other handles, including rhe Outdoorrsman Series.)

How was I not suppose to buy it! I mean its a rope knife / cotton sampler, just all around cool knife and I needed it to complete the series!
