I've admired many of Alan's glamor shots of this brown burlap micarta (aka "Tater Skin") Rough Ryder small linerlock work knife over the past few weeks. He very generously sent one to me, for which I'm very grateful!

It's not my first micarta knife, but I don't have many, and this is my first post in this thread. The knife is comparable to a Case Sodbuster Jr. in length (3.5" closed), but my impression is that the RR is more slender than the SBJr, and the blade profiles are certainly different, although I'd probably say both knives have drop point blades. Someday soon I should take some comparison photos of the various brands of sodbuster junior style knives I have.

Thanks again, Alan!
