Re: Rough Riders!
Thank you Tim. From what I can tell, it's priced in Swiss Francs. A little research on an unrelated site indicated that shipping via FedEx would probably be around $15.

I figured that if they would ship here it would be pretty high.
Shipping price plus the cost of the knife would be about $40.
I really want one, but I'll have to think about it.

Re: Rough Riders!
I just received an email from the knife shop.
The knife plus shipping will be over $60.
A little to steep for me.

Re: Rough Riders!
I finally found one! 
I bought it from a knife dealer in England.
The knife cost 12 pounds plus 6 pounds priority registered mail.
It arrived today and I'm very happy with it.
It reminds me of a GEC Viper.
I'll try to get a photo of it.

Re: Rough Riders!
Just about like that Suitcase. I am so thankful I didn't pay full freight like the Case 5 blade Mini-Trapper that's currently on eBay.

Re: Rough Riders!
10-4 An interesting piece but probably not a comfortable EDC, kinda' like some of the double barreled knives by RR, more to look at than to use. And since it's a mini-trapper you just couldn't live without it.

Re: Rough Riders!
Philip, let's just say I was intrigued by it. It's more of a "try it before you buy it" for the Case 5 blade.

Re: Rough Riders!
Rough Riders are amazing. They keep coming out with new patterns or new handles and every time they are as good or even better than the previously released knives. I remember when the pattern numbers were like "057" or "132" and now they are in 2000's, each number is either a different pattern or different handles.
You never know what is coming next but you can count on it being a very good knife regardless of price.
Thanks for showing us these 2 new arrivals Old Folder.

Is the Rough Ryder Kamp King a new model? I don't recall previously seeing this one.
