RRR ROUGH RIDER RESERVE

Post by OSCAR »

A fairly new line but much more attention to the manufacturing. D2 steel blades. In the $50 price range but terrific quality at a great price

I never buy Chinese knives but I just had to buy the Hedgehog RRR knife to see for myself. Seems to be high quality materials and excellent fit and finish. Only complaint is all these models are chunky and heavy. Fit for hard work, though.

Tallguy: I agree with you on not buying Chinese knives except for some Rough Rider, and some of AG Russell line which are excellent quality. The Rough Rider Reserve line are of exceptional quality at a low price point for knives made that well. They’re built like tanks and chunky but
superb quality. I’ve not found any knives made that well that weren’t at least triple the price.

Redrider, I have four of them. All excellent quality ! Not buying any more, even though they are a great price for knives made this well. The recession has put a halt to my buying knives. The single bladed lockback with blue denim micarta handles is especially awesome

One of my favorite knives regardless of the manufacturer.

Oscar that is a great looking knife. I like gunstock jacks and with it being a lockback makes that one I would love and use.

I find myself really liking the "Panthera", "Clasp", "Copperhead", I have a "Hippo Toe" on the way, and if the large gunstock only had a spear-point blade! ::hmm:: 8)

That EO Tear Jerk kind of looks like a Candle Jack.

I like that model too John, even with the 2 blades, cuz I like both style blades and if I deploy them 1 at a time it'll be just like a single bladder! Win win! lol! 8)

Their stockman. Great knife at a terrific price. Gator snap on all three blades. Fit and finish second to none.

Another beautiful RR knife. I like the shape of that one.
