Rough Rider & Related Slipjoints

I just purchased my first RR product, a knife pick, wonder why these arent drilled for use on a keyring? would probably be impossible to drill.
 
Looking for recommendations on the best hassle free sites to purchase RR knives.
i.e reputable, good stock on hand, no hassle return if needed etc.
Also any recommendations :thumbup: on your favorite RR in terms of fit & finish and cool factor!:cool:

Thanks!

The Barlow is one of my favorites.

The butterbean is a nice watch pocket backup.

I recently got a RR670 stockman in gunstock bone. Its pretty good quality, but the spey blade was hanging up on the sheeps foot, it's wearing in though. It was a little smaller than I expected too. Over all, it's pretty good, I Tuf-clothed it, then after it dried, I washed it and sliced up an apple. I'm pretty proud of it because it was my first slipjoint purchase

I sent you a visitors message with Rough rider dealers.
Here's a pic with the Jumbo Trapper, an amazing big knife. The others are a Boxcar whittler and a peanut for the small end.

Congrats on your first slippie, the RR line is great for trying lots of patterns at a very reasonable price for a very decent knife. The gunstock jigged bone is one of my favourites.

Best regards

Thanks Robin. That was the way that I bought it too. As an experiment on size and usability.
 
I discovered that I don't like barlow or canoe pattern knives or small knives. I also found out I love Trappers and Stockman patterns.

I bought my first about 6 or 7 years ago, a micarta stockman, still use it to cut leather every day. They make dozens of great early patterns to try out.

Best regards

You have to try the Jumbo Trapper, a big hard working knife, the spey blade is a great skinner.

Best regards
