When I decided I wanted to start collecting knives, (about 6 years ago), I went the cheap route and picked up a dozen or more Rough Riders. This stockman may have been the 2nd or 3rd of my pickups and not at all a disappointment. Nice F&F, no gaps at springs/liners, very nice blade action and snap, plus pocket friendly with almost sunken joints. I dyed the orange bone with some brown RIT a few years back to give it a mottled look. The one thing I would change if I could would be to eliminate the match strike nail nicks. All things considered, it's a good knife to carry on occasion.

If ya ever find yourself in a bathtub full of water with an unlit cigar in yer mouth and a strike anywhere match in yer hand with nothing rough to strike the match on, you'd welcome a knife with match strike pulls. Just sayin

Thank you, Jeremy.

Looks like the BFF went to the right place too.

Thanks John!

Thank you kindly my friend… I’ve got IT (newbie) in my hands as it’s just arrived!!
You prolly know what I mean
Saving it for Monday.

No, no… I got the message just fine pal !!
It’s really been a dry run for newbies lately, other than yours and some more from our exchange for say a six month period.
I just thought about the meaning of “new” and how it pertains to the present. I’ve had some seriously great luck lately and hope it continues!! I thank you again !!!
Wunderful daily pairings you’re showing as well and those quotes top it all off

You have a great collection of well loved knives. I enjoy seeing them and imagining the stories behind them..

I'd just strike the match on my unshaven jaw. I too dislike match striker nail nicks.

Not an issue at my house, Ed. I don't use the bathtub, I only shower, Plus the wife makes me smoke all my cigars outside or on the front porch.
Although it would be kinda cool to relax in a tub with a whiskey & cigar, like the old cowboys in the movies do after coming off a long stretch on a cattle drive or a bank robbery.
