It seems to be one of the most popular of all the WHB knives I have. I did a video on just that knife, actually. th-cam.com/video/i2FOFApu_3A/w-d-xo.html
@@KnifeChatswithTobias. I will have to go watch that video. And, thanks for your informative videos on this hobby. I have collected knives over the years, but not to the extent you have. I just received a Boker Rangebuster to retire my Case Sodbuster, and have three RR knives on the way. 2 Trappers, and one is a WHB Minuteman. The third is a buckshot Barlow. I was suspicious of the Barlow because it has an R on the metal bolster instead of the RR horseshoe, and uses two different spellings of 'Ryder/Rider.' But, seeing that you have the same style and vaildated it as a true RR gave me confidence in ordering it. I was going to get the WHB standard Barlow, but Amazon has it locked into one of its Prime offers right now and won't give me free shipping without having Amazon Prime. You should get some kind of kickback from RR for your vids.
I always think I have a lot of Rough Riders, but I’ve only one white smooth bone, a barlow that you gave me, and only about 20 in total! I love the Grandaddy barlow’s I’ve just one bone ram’s horn.
What a nice collection,I particularly like the large and small Sunfish (Never seen a large equal end for sale) and the Hunter is a lot of knife for the money. I have a couple of other makes of knife in that 'characterful' white bone, I treated them with spirit based wood dye in Sapeli colour, the dye only goes into tiny cracks and faults in the bone and makes them look more aged.
Hi Tobias, a great post, a lot of really interesting knives and great reviews of such, I have been thinking of getting a Copperhead as I don’t have one in my small collection, so I wanted to see want you think of the RR in smooth white bone, as I am a big fan of this material. Thank you for the review and the recommendation.👍 Take care Sam
I just received my RR white smooth marlin spike and it's a great knife. I had two other RR white smooth bone, Hawkbill & Canoe, but I dyed them other colors. I'm leaving this one white.
@@KnifeChatswithTobias After watching this video, I appreciate the white bone much more. I just ordered 4 more Rough Rider's in white bone, and I am leaving them white bone. I dyed the other two, just to see if it would work on a traditional without removing the scales.
Really like the Big Hunter the handle and blade style are they still available reminds me of my very first folder as a child that I ever owned , bring back old memories.
Do you have a Marbles White Smooth Bone Sunfish? Have been thinking of ordering one. It looks nearly identical to the second RR you show here. Thanks for all the great vids!
I have not picked it up, yet. I suspect it is the same knife but it might have half sops on the blades. I'm waiting to see it on Knife Detector's Channel.
Only thing about rough riders I don't like is the swedge, the very deep nail nick and the lack of carbon steel knives, seems they only use stainless in most all there knives. Nice collection.
You have to go a long way to beat a rough rider knife for the price. Their is one other brand of knife that is good and its a marble knife. It would be a hard to beat these two brand of knifes.
I would take no half stop any day over that stupid R they have on the bolsters , If they did the R in a different way maybe, with the way they do it looks like an RT that’s put on crooked I hate them I’ve passed up on many knives because of that bolster anyway nice collection Brother
It was nice on a couple. I’m also sick of the silly “Slant R”. As for half stops, I’m totally indifferent to them. Interesting enough- none of my currents EDCs have a half stop.
I forget the name of the channel but he doesn’t like the slanted R neither and he told me around six months ago they stop doing it because they finally got the hint, I have a beautiful canoe from them it has all the bells and whistle’s everything you could put on a knife it’s so busy looking at almost looks silly, then you have the stars and stripes badge and Then an inch away you have the RT so it’s unappealing, I think they’re doing it on just certain models right now
Not quite correct. Smoky Mountain Knife Works (SMKW) entered into an agreement with Colt to produce knives under license for the company. Colt filed bankruptcy in 2015 and as part of their reorganization they ended their licensing agreement with SMKW. SMKW had been producing Colt Knives under license for about 10 years at the time. These knives were being produced in the same factory as SMKW's Rough Rider (now Rough Ryder) line of knives. With the loss of the Colt licensing agreement, SMKW decided to move most of the knives in the old Colt line up into the re-vamped Rough Ryder line. Also a small number of former Colt "patterns" produced by SMKW moved to Marble's knives. (Marble's is owned by Blue Grass Cutlery but SMKW produces most of their China and Pakistan made knives).
Very well aware that they are made in China. (a few are also made in Pakistan but none of the ones in this video were.) They also had one knife made in El Salvador. I normally mention that they are made in China, especially when I'm reviewing and individual knife. See my other video: th-cam.com/video/R525CWcGCi4/w-d-xo.html

Your collection of these is awesome, and still going, thanks for sharing
Really like that white smooth bone camp knife you made 👍.. wish Rough Ryder offered more too!
Lovely knives, that folding Hunter is really impressive.
White smooth bone...oh yeah, gorgeous! One of my favorites is the RR 1972 Equestrian with a very handy 4" pick.
Awesome RR you have brother. Thanks for sharing. Happy Father’s Day. 🙏🏻
You have quite the knife colectoion, these smooth bone knives areall nice, I like the etched Halloween knives. Cheers !

He is the Real Cutlery Lover in my opinion 🆒🤠✌️
I’m working on getting some more rough Ryders I’ll get there!!!!!! Thanks Tobias
Just a great collection mate. I must get a small canoe to go with my brother 1508 White Bone. They would compliment each other. Atb paddy 👍☘️😃
Yep. I really like my white bone granddaddy barlow. My only other white bone knives are 3 Winchester knives that came as a gift set.

Beautiful knife sir

Having watched rest of the video, I realise I’ve a smooth white bone elephant’s toenail too!
I really like how RR does their clip blades in general. A clip is supposed to be pointy IMO, not swept up and blunt.
The elusive White Bone "Big Daddy Barlow" ....the only RR one I don't have. Maybe they will Re-release it!
What a nice collection,I particularly like the large and small Sunfish (Never seen a large equal end for sale) and the Hunter is a lot of knife for the money.
I have a couple of other makes of knife in that 'characterful' white bone, I treated them with spirit based wood dye in Sapeli colour, the dye only goes into tiny cracks and faults in the bone and makes them look more aged.
Ok! I need a few rough rider knives!! Thank you!
Thanks, love the white smooth bone. My ideal would be a sheep foot & small pen 👍🏽
Rough Ryder does make a smooth white bone 4 bladed knife which is RR1256, the Mini Congress.
Have the canoe smooth white bone and my friend ha the small sunfish. Great knives.
I have a RR large sunfish in white smooth bone, one of my favorite knives!

Seems quite a few people buy them just to dye them. I'm not sure why I just like the natural white bone.

Oh and good collection of White Bone folders Soldier.
I have that marlinspike knife! I love it!
Should call the elephant toenail the (Water Bug)..love that knife 😷👍
Do you keep records of what you’ve bought/sold/traded/gifted? I do as my memory fades!
I remember Colt knives
Do you have a Marbles White Smooth Bone Sunfish? Have been thinking of ordering one. It looks nearly identical to the second RR you show here. Thanks for all the great vids!

Dies anybody know what bone is used for the smooth bone models?
Drooling
Glad you enjoyed it! I'll be doing more soon!

@@jojojeep1 I think it is time to retire it unless they add a new pattern to an existing series that uses it.
Hey Tobias just got an email from SMKW they have a white bone doctor’s knife on sale for $44.95.
Rough rider both out colt knifes.

Nur you that Rough Rider knives are made in China
Very well aware that they are made in China. (a few are also made in Pakistan but none of the ones in this video were.) They also had one knife made in El Salvador. I normally mention that they are made in China, especially when I'm reviewing and individual knife. See my other video: th-cam.com/video/R525CWcGCi4/w-d-xo.html
Be an American. Give up Rough Rider and start collecting GEC.
Rough riders are getting show lights now? Run out of knives too review that somebody hasn’t done. Rough rider are cool till you see China.
