OK guy's - The time has come for all you Rough Rider buyers to come out of the "Closet". With just about every major knife company having all or part of their knives built in China it is OK to say - "Yes" I have Rough Riders in my collection. 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
JJ - I have all my pic's on my web page - I delete them as they sell or if i don't have another one instock that I can engrave - A Sunfish makes a good one to warn cliff that small blade - then you have something you can clean your finger nails with - tom
Yep - thats it - thats the way the Sunfish should have been made in the first place - If I have a 2 blade knife i would like a California Clip & a Warn Cliff - best of both worlds - tom
i think they do - i sent in an order over the week-in & i think I ordered a couple to engrave for stock - I'll take a pix when they get here - should be Thurs or Fri - tom
Alright, I am coming out of the closet. I probably have around 200 Rough Riders. They were one of the imports that got me started. Good knifes for a good price and they will give you good service. Lots and lots of patterns. They are one of the few brands that you can find sunfish, elephant toenails and leg patterns in.My wife has me buy her every ladyleg I come across. Smoothbone and Stag are my favotite handle materials in the Rough Rider line.
Hey RR's are pretty nice and offer a beginner a way into collecting some well made and sometimes very pleasing knifes in many styles, without braking the bank.
Steve, I Know that Rough Rider has several styles of Fixed Blades. Only one that I have is the B&T in the first Stag series. Seems that the Fixed Blades, in any handle material, are almost always the first to sell out. That should tell SMKW something...
This one was under $20.00. And it is real stag too. (Stag on the second series was better though, but no fixed blade.)
SMKW lists over 20 Rough Rider Fixed Blades, from a Small Hunter for $7.00 (RR070) to a Rough Rider Presentation Hunter for $35.00 (RR1097). Bunch more in between too.
Go to the SMKW website and type in Rough Rider Fixed Blade, ENJOY.

Howdy Tom,
Don't customize them like you do, but I do try to make them more "useful"...
