Appears that I have upset someone affiliated with Rough Rider, with my comments about the thinness of the blades in the Large Stockman.
Someone responded to my comments saying that all traditional patterns have 1/16" blades.
Well, I've been known to be mistaken, once or twice, so I decided that I'd compare the 603 to a Little Barlow (RR901). As both are in the Yellow Comp series, I figured that it should be close.
Compared the pin blade on the 901 to the spey, sheepsfoot, as well as the clip master blade.
Photos speak for themselves.
i was just passing thru, Jan. its on the way to Charleston.
Wish I had known you were there Tobias, I would have made the 3 hour drive to see you there! Nice knives you picked up though!
Nice one, Tobias. I really like the scales on that one.
Ron, there area lot of nice RR if you go back on the threads. Wow, I didn't realize it had been this long since someone posted on here. I may have to dig out some pictures to post. It has been a while since I have bought a RR, but I have plenty.
Great looking knife!
