Going to try and get a green if i can, but they sell out really quickly here. Been waiting for one i really like, and these fit the bill. The reviews of these are so good. I"ll see how i go.

Please answer a serious question about Rosecraft Blades. Are Rosecraft, or are they not, just Rough Rider Reserve at a higher price. I ask because I have Temu knives that rival Case in build quality but have no delusions that the materials are the same. Why pay American made prices for Chinese knives?

And add to that my serious questions about the statement on their website where they say they are going to build a plant in the US sometime "in the future", and the statement that the people who build the knives in China are RoseCraft employees. Are either of those statements true?

Bill, I have handled and sold 100s of RoseCraft knives in almost 4 years as a qualified dealer. I sold some Rough Ryder Reserves before that, and speaking from experience, the RoseCrafts are better knives all around, especially in fit an finish. ( Opinions will vary, of course. ) I know nothing about Temu knives, but have used my RoseCrafts extensively, and the materials hold up very well. The D2 steel they used in their older patterns has held an edge well. All the newer patterns now have 14C28N stainless. I have not seen any wobble in the pivots or covers coming loose, etc.

Since becoming a RoseCraft dealer, I have had only one return because of a blade rub. As with any company that is doing production, issues do come up with products over time, but I have had only one. The price of RoseCraft knives has increased a bit the last couple years, but not as much as some other knife companies. Everything costs more these days. Hope this helps answer your question.

OC, I think your question would need to be addressed by RoseCraft. Anything else would be speculation. Here is a link to contact them:

Thanks for your reply that did answer my question. I asked because I have had neither a Rosecraft nor a RRR in hand. I do have quite a few standard Rough Ryders and Chinese made Queen and Marbles. I haven't had major issues with any of those. And as I said, I own several Temu knives, but do not purchase any of their obviously counterfeit knives.

If you're interested, RoseCraft has a sale on trappers. I just bought one. $44.99

Got this Cocklebur Trapper today.
It's an incredible knife! I have to be honest, I was prejudiced against the brand at first but after owning one, I'm impressed, beyond impressed.
I prefer it to a traditional Case trapper all day long. Fit and finish is stellar. Assembled with precision. Smooth and feels good in the hand. The blade pulls are great. Lovely grinds on D2 tool steel. Can't beat this knife. It's almost too nice to use.

Between Tony's answer to my question and American Blade 92's obvious "disappointment" in his Cocklebur Trapper, I decided to look closer at the brand. Unfortunately, none of the current Rosecraft offerings at Corn Creek Cutlery jumped out and said, "Buy Me!".

Then I fell into a 3 way KAS trap. My interest in Rosecraft was piqued, I don't own a Muskrat and Rosecraft just happened to have the Sequatchie River Muskrat (https://rosecraftblades.com/product/ros ... at-rct018/) discounted. Hard as I tried, I just couldn't resist.

Will post pictures and a review when the "KASS Fix" arrives.

Excellent choice Bill ... the Sequatchie is one of my favorite RCs!

That Cocklebur looks really nice. They say all their knives are
hand made and checked twice before shipping it to you. Looks
like they have very good QC.

I've been carrying it every day since last week and it's honestly a pleasure to use. The quality is Grade A excellent.
I'd say a very good QC as you said.

Something else I love about RoseCraft. The handles have a nice radius, not flat . Makes a very classy look and very comfortable in the hand.

At last having to wait out the Memorial Day weekend I finally got my next three RoseCraft Blades from our very own here at AAPK. Thank you very much Tony!
I have the Birchfield Camp Jack in green and both the black and red Tuckahoe Jack. As always these three knives pass my tests for ownership. They are sensibly priced; appealing to the eye in style and color; excellent craftmanship and materials; and they fit the bill for what I want in a pocket knife. That red Tuckahoe Jack is going straight into my EDC rotation box.
