Red Trout Knives
Red Trout Knives
Hey folks, just wanted to send you a heads up to let you know that Red Trout knives just got 55 new sheepfoot blade boy's knives in. Don't know when he'll be listing them but you can likely go to his store and give him a call for the info. Blade steel is 1095 on this batch. 32 different handle materials. Here's a pic (my only one, I never seem to have time to take any pics ), this one's sarsaparilla jigged bone. It has a crack in it so it needs some new clothes:

Re: Red Trout Knives
Amazing knives Eric. Would love to have one
Re: Red Trout Knives
Jay! Here's Rich's contact info right off the label. Definitely best to call him rather than email. They'll also likely be trickling in to his store as he photographs them. Let me know if you snag one!

Re: Red Trout Knives
I just got back from an appointment I made to see the knives in person as I reside nearby...
When I spoke to him & his daughter on the phone earlier today, he only had ten left. When I got there the pile was down to 6.
This is the one that came home with me.
His daughter said the phone orders have been coming so fast, they never got time to take photos to post them online.
There's no slip in the box that identifies the handle material. Since there were two of these side by side & going by Eric's list,
I'm assuming I got one of the Mahogany Jigged Bone.
[Edit at 7:26pm} Just looked at the label on the end of the box where it says Mahogany Jigged Bone.

Re: Red Trout Knives
Ken nice choice! There should be a sticker on the end of the box that says what the handles are. At least there was one when it left here lol. We must be nearly neighbors. I'm just past Middletown, hand delivered the knives to Rich this past weekend.

Re: Red Trout Knives
Got another blue rope jigged Red Trout knife. Got a picture of one that Eric said was made by Schrade w/ the same blue rope jigging. I think these knives are better this year. Not sure what’s different but I think the quality is a bit better.

Re: Red Trout Knives
Great looking pair, Sharpnshiny. I hope to have a similar set soon.

Re: Red Trout Knives
The blue rope jigged sheepfoot showed up today, fits in nicely with the other two I have.

Re: Red Trout Knives
Received these two yesterday - I'm absolutely thrilled with both of them (my first Red Trouts and Canal Streets) ...
Re: Red Trout Knives
Is that the Snakeskin Micarta? That is really nice. Eric really had a lot of different covers.

Re: Red Trout Knives
Yes, it's the Snakeskin. It's pretty neat stuff, there were a ton of interesting choices.

Re: Red Trout Knives
AAPK member Chase showed me a knife with that Snakeskin Micarta on Monday last week, it really is some pretty cool looking scale material.
