That looks quite nice. I wonder what the quality of the Colt knives is like?

Jon here's one you didn't get. A small Stockman.
It's so purty I call it my Sunday knife.

What do you think of the Marbles Stockman? Funky blades eh?

 

[JonE]

That looks nice Dave, I think I'll order a Trapper in the Tortoise shell.

I like the Marbles the funky blades make it a bit different. The small clip? is a nice blade the bone is also very nice.

Cheers

Double post! Derp

My trapper in tortoise shell.


Nice knife, tight blades with no slack or wobble. I took a few mm off of both blades as they were a bit over 3" in total.


And the mighty sunfish!


I bought two of these and gave one to my friend. My main blade had a midge of wobble but was strong and chunky!

My favourite thing about RR knives other than affordability is their very decent heat treating! They take the best 440* edges of any I've used!

 

[JonE]

Nice looking knives Samon, that Sunfish looks good. I didn't realise they were so big.

 

[Samon]

They are big but blades still under 3"!

Next one on my list is a conoe model and maybe a bunch more once they finally churn a few carbon steel versions that they've promised!!

 

[JonE]

The Canoe is nice I wasn't sure it I'd like the pattern but I do. The jigged bone version also looks pretty nice.

 

[Dave-the-rave]

Check out the Canoe in the Rifleman series. Fit n finish is top notch.

 

[JonE]

I like the look of the Rifleman series, think I'll add some to the list.

 

[JonE]

I'm going to order either this

or this

http://www.smkw.com/webapp/eCommerc...Rider™+Coal+Miner+Half+Hawk/RR12840.html

and a trapper in tortoise shell or saw cut bone next.

Another addition to the collection not a Rough Rider this time but a Schrade Uncle Henry 885.

 

[Dave-the-rave]
