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

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!

I'm not sure how many people are aware of it but Moose is actually a fairly old pattern knife. It is said the pattern was developed by George Washington Sears - better known as Nessmuk. In its earlier days the knife was known as the the Nessmuk folder.

Nice one, Tobias. I like some of the new handles material that RR has come out with. I like the Moose pattern almost as well as Trappers.

Also got Mr. Moose in Crackle Stone.  My first Moose.  I wasn't sure if I was going to like the pattern but it looks pretty awesome. Not sure what the synthetic carckle stone is supposed to be; maybe a turquoise?   The band in the middle is genuine abalone.  I like the wicked bend in the spay.

Tobias, I have that same knife.

My latest Rough Rider is the Copperstone 3" Toothpick.   As you can probably tell it comes in one of the magnetic closing boxes that had been part of the Colt line.    The loss of Colt to the SMKW just might revive that the stagnant Rough Rider Traditional knives.   The Crackle Stone and the Buckshot Bone are also coming over to Rough Rider.   So did the Turquoise Peak!

I'm seeing quite a few of the old Colt pocket knives showing up in the Rough Rider line! I'm also seeing quite a few new handle materials being used in the RR line. no doubt the demise of Colt at SMKW has led to a resurgence in the SMKW house brands. I wonder if some of the Colt Tactical stuff will find it way to Rough Rider or Combat Ready?

I like that RR1469.  I need to get one for my RR collection.  I already have the RR1400.
