Re: Rough Riders!
Jerryd, Dang
I evidently had a brain spasm yesterday. You asked me the model number of a RR which I supplied but addressed my response to Phil. I may have been distracted by your latest avatar. Apologies.

I have never owned a RR until these. Bought one because of the pattern, then snagged another one.

Re: Rough Riders!
Those RR Sunfish knives are very cool, Tony. I like the bone best, but the other one, imitaiton abalone(?) is also really nice.
Paul - how did you remove the coating on the blades? I note that there is a can of metal polish behind the knife in the second photo, but it seems that it might take more than that. Your knife is looking good.

Thanks Dan. These are 3” closed, and just over 6” with both blades fully open.Old Folder wrote:Beauties Tony.

I don’t know production dates. Do the numbers on the inside of the box lid give that info?
Thank you sir. The bone is my favorite. It came first. The price on the imitation abalone was too good to pass up.Dinadan wrote:Those RR Sunfish knives are very cool, Tony. I like the bone best, but the other one, imitaiton abalone(?) is also really nice.

These knives are some of the nicest I have had for the money.

Nice looking jigged Red Bone there Deltaboy. Looks like you are sewing some cloth carry pouches for your Rough Riders. Neat !

That would be their small sunfish.
The "RR number" is also normally always laser etched on the pile side of the master blade, along with "440 razor steel" and China. Never seen a dated RR blade except on commemorative and special occasion knives.

Re: Rough Riders!
Bombed by XX Case XX with my first RR.
Great fit and finish, no wobble, nice snap, and a stockman, to boot! I'm impressed with this knife.
Thanks Mike!!
