Received my first Rough Ryder knife, and the bow canoe roughly ten minutes ago! Took a chance because of your well informed review and have to say…I received a very clean handsome knife at a great price. Love the feel and the heft. You feel your holding a knife….but I’m old school…carrying knives for over 65+ years. Thanks for your videos.
Thank you TK, I've got the bone stag whittler classic carbon2. And it has proud pins, no gapping on the back. And also case has some suede snap top medium you can wear on your belt or slip.they are very lightweight but nice suede with a snap 10 to $13. I've got them on a lot of my knives! Just throw them right in your pocket! And about the pull on this whittler in the same style on the main blade it's double sprained and it is an eight Maybe .very hard. It would be very hard to close on your hand. But I digress I think case has some pretty cheap knife sheaths that can double as a slip. Very comfortable in the pocket. Thank you TK for the video I may just go buy that one . I will say the pins on this one will have to be filed down cuz mine all of them did! Also I put too much mustard on mine for too long and it's got black blades but I still love it! Thank you for the video TK. My wife tells me that the case snap sheaths, are rough leather not suede. She's probably right but it's what I call suede! I think you'll like them!
@@ThriftyKaniffy 10-4 I myself think that they're suede either way they're leather I don't know the difference they're soft good luck thank you for the video. And Merry Christmas to you and yours!
I like a good lock-up and the blades have a nice belly, i'm very attrackted to this one. I'm glad that the black on the bone isn't coming off, it looks awesome. Your hand is being forced a bit into an angle with that bow, but i don't think that would be an issue. Thank you for showing TK.
This was the first bow canoe I've ever seen, and I think it's a neat looking pattern. Considering the ergonomics, I don't know how practical it would be, but it sure looks cool. Cheers, buddy!
Thanks TK for reviewing this knife. Like the fact that there is no shield. Shame about the gapping in the back spring though. Appreciate you take the time to show people these different knives and this is one to add to my collection. Many thanks from the UK.
Hi Paul, where would you recommend looking for RR knives in the UK. I suspect I know the main 2 or 3 places already but I've only just started buying them, so maybe there's somewhere good that I've not found yet, thanks in advance.
You bet Paul. This one is little bit of an oddball. Not sure I fully know what to think of it at this point may need to carry it for a while. Merry Christmas from the this side of the pond.
I too was very skeptical about this pattern. Very different and unique but it doesn’t tickle my fancy. Not a big fan of canoes in general so I could be bias. Thank you for giving the community a look at this new pattern TK 👍
So I have to say the organelle makes of this look great when it comes to cutting towards you. Especially if you’re feeling, and Ample are doing some slicing or cutting in boxes. But if you’re cutting away from yourself, I’m not sure how ergonomically this knife is. But I am still considering getting one. I hope you have a wonderful day and thank you again for a great video. I’m trying to catch up on all of yours.
@@ThriftyKaniffy I ended up picking it up. Primarily because it just looks fantastic. It’s a gorgeous looking nice and I actually think it can be remedied in regards to the ergonomics by pinching the sides of the Knife and using the Small Pet Blade as a package, opening knife, and then the larger night for all of your major jobs.
That long pull is a nice surprise. I like this one, but that curve somehow seems comical. It’s a little bit Gumby. Don’t know if I’ll go after it - I’m all excited for the half hawk, though. Still, beautiful covers, plain bolsters. Nice. Thanks for the closeup!
Thanks...Good to know the black is not rubbing off. I watched your Live review of of the Classic Cinnamon Stag last night and was prepared to use Krylon. Are you getting any blade rub? It was my intention to get the one with the Wharncliffe blade but they were out of stock. The video I watched was experiencing blade rub on the main blade.
Nice review! I’m with you, if it can’t fit in a slip or a sheath it stays home. Of course you can use it around the house and it’s a good knife but it won’t go out in the wild. Merry Christmas TK!
A little bit of a difficult shape. Oh well, It just so happens I've got a few other carry options laying around. Understatement of the year. My math's not great either. Merry Christmas, RJ.
Hey Thrifty I love the look of that bone stag I was curious about that one…. I’ll use you for the Guinea pig on this one……. I’m having mixed feelings I think I like it lol…. Anyway thanks for the look I’d add it to the Rough Ryder collection I suppose 😊
Nice scales , I'm not a fan of the exaggerated bow pattern and that gap is a shame , but for $ 13.00 +/- , not bad at all . Great review . Peace . Be Free .

Glad you are enjoying the content, oldbones. Welcome to the channel.
thats a cute one, as the pen blade I would prefer a bottle opener :) thanks for the video, cheers
Thanks Cat. A little more "Bow" than I care for.
Great review! This one is going on my SMKW Save For Later list. I sure like the slideshows you do at the end of your reviews. Thanks!
Glad you like the photos. Nice handles. Thanks, Robert.
Great looking knife! Love that color of the bone!!
It's colored really nicely, RR did a good job with the handles on these. Thanks, Mike.
Nice clean looking blades with no big R makes it look real nice.🙂
So good to be free of the R/T. The bow canoe is a little unconventional. Would take some getting used to. Thanks, Gizmo.
Gorgeous knife friend!!!
Thanks a bunch KD. A little sunfish like, amigo.

I'll have to check out the Case rough leather sheaths. Thanks for the tip, KJ.

Yes thanks for having a look, not my favorite knife in the world to use but the blades are very nice.

That's pretty much where I am with it. Glad I explored the pattern.
It does have a sunfish look to it, they did a really good job on the handle material, thanks for sharing it!
It definitely gives me that Sunfish vibe. Thanks, Jose.

Thanks for having a look. Not blowing me away by any means, but worth checking out.
I may have to pull the trigger on this puppy - though, it's looks like a Bow-Canoe! 🛶 😁
Cool video my friend,
Atb Gus 👍
Little different. I'd still prefer a regular canoe, but can't deny the beefier feel.
Good looking knife with a great action.
Thank you Prop. Kinda curvy. If you like curvy things. Merry Christmas!

That's a beauty,TK. Never mind looking for a slip, I will keep it in the box (wish those boxes were smaller though, they take up so much space).
Yea don't I know it, I have a load of them. Massive space waster. Thanks DD.
Hey, Dave, I got a fab swag pack from Zach the other day. I understand it was your doing. Thanks, man!
@@skcamerican Merry Christmas! I have no idea about the swag pack from Zach, sorry, but I am glad for you. Might be a different Dave?

I'll be sure and review a half hawk, Su. Your late Christmas present.
Merry Christmas 🎄
You have a great one Rick. Merry Christmas.

This one didn't have blade rub, but if you push open the blade I could see them making contact.
Nice, I think I'll get one. 👍
Ok, Mike. Thanks for watching

It's a hard one to review. Quirky. Thanks, Petey Poo.
@@ThriftyKaniffy yes yes good way to put it!!!
Very nice.
Thank you North Star. Glad you liked it.
J.O. Ventures Outdoors will hook you up with a nice leather custom slip he’s the man he’s still learning and he’s not a pro but I like his work!!!!!
I bet he would. We will be discussing some things after the holidays.
Nice scales , I'm not a fan of the exaggerated bow pattern and that gap is a
shame , but for $ 13.00 +/- , not bad at all .
Great review .
Peace . Be Free .
Thanks for having a look. Far from the perfect knife, but not a complete disaster either.
Dig that mag box.
The box fetish is cracking me up. Merry Christmas, Rick.
Real Bone
Yes, real bone.
👍👍👍👍
Thanks Brother. 👍
I use a reverse grip as much as a forward grip a straight knife works a lot better
It's a little awkward I agree. Thanks Randel.
I'd quite like that if they lost the smaller blade useful main blade for a small knife.
Well that would solve the hot spot issue. Thanks Lewis. Merry Christmas!
Good review on a interesting shaped knife doesn’t look comfortable for the hand though
It's got some setbacks, but the main blade usage should be okay.
@@ThriftyKaniffy No knife is perfect just gotta find one that’s quirks fit yours
Real bone or imitation????
Real bone, imitation coloring to make it look like Stag.
for 16 $ ok I guess
Not gonna break the bank. It was wortth exploring.
Cancer warning
Lol
Yep, pretty much every new knife has one
