Old Henry
Great site and I appreciate the work involved in making it so good.
I'm new at collecting pocket knives and have a few older ones that I'm looking forward to researching.
I ran across some one telling me about Old Henry knives. Not Uncle Henry.
Any one ever hear of Old Henry pocket knives?

Re: Old Henry
I think they got the makers of Rough Rider all over them.
Funny they look more like Case than Schrade.
I was looking for the history of Rough Rider Knives...did not know they are American Owned...we all know CHINA made.

Re: Old Henry
Rough Rider is owned by Smokey Mountain Knife Works based in Sevierville, Tenn. here in the good ole U S of A
of course the knives are made in the People's Republic of China.

Re: Old Henry
Warning
As with all knives, Rough Rider knives should be handled with care.
WTF?? All this PC crap is going to drive me absolutely, stark raving mad one of these days. If you read about a crazed Viet Nam veteran Marine with an automatic weapon, you'll know that's me. Sheese.
(To the Big Eye in the Sky, I say, uh I say there son, that part about the "crazed Viet Nam veteran Marine with an automatic weapon", is a joke son. I say, it's a joke. You know? Humor?)

Re: Old Henry
Seem to be several of these new 'confusing' brands in the 'Bay.
Seems someone trying to capitalize on well known names w/o infringing on copyrights.
Like this Old Timer + Uncle Henry = Old Henry.
Saw an 'almost right' sounding German name but can't remember it right now.
Wasn't Earbrand or Fightin' Chickens but something similar.
Watch out for those Roledex watches too.

Wildjim,
If that be the case, then Steve Coontz and Tony Watson got right on national TV and lied like rugs about it cause they plainly stated that Rough Rider was SMKW's own brand. I have also heard Steve Coontz mention on multiple occasions being involved in the development and selection of new patterns and designs they had produced under the Rough Rider brand.
If SMKW does not own Rough Rider, please tell me who does.

All I know is that when I emailed SMKW with the question "does SMKW own or design Rough Rider knives" they didn't respond.
I don't watch much TV maybe once every three months so I guess I missed their appearance and statement of Rough Rider Knives ownership ; )
I will defer to your TV observations and take you at your word ; )
Thank You for the clarification. . .
I do believe Rough Rider knives will be collectable someday; especially the Brian Yellowhorse designs and like. . .
