Re: Rough Rider Shields
Here's a Rough Rider shield from WWII. Brigadier General Teddy Roosevelt. Thought I'd throw this in the mix.

Re: Rough Rider Shields
One more vote for the acorn shield. Pretty much hot to trot over most of the figural shields.

Re: Rough Rider Shields
I'm going on 6 months late for a response to your above message LJ. Sorry.
But yes, I do have all the the current 12 Southwest Series knives. They just keep coming. Very happy with them, beautiful series.

Re: Rough Rider Shields
Hello from the UK ,
I have a good little collection of rough Ryder knives and as others do , i like the acorn inlay badge / shield but I also think the Pipe Doctor badge is very nice touch and very appropriate . I remember looking on another site and seeing a lovely little sun fish badge ( anyone got any photos ?)

Re: Rough Rider Shields
Can anyone tell me what the Acorn badge denotes on some RR knives ?
