In the summer of 1898, Teddy
Roosevelt began to organize the
1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry for
what seemed to be an inevitable
and difficult battle with the
Spanish. Over 23,000 men
volunteered to ride with
Roosevelt, but he whittled that
number down to 2,000 handpicked
cavalrymen. The men hailed from
every corner of the United Sates.
They were Princeton football
players, full-blooded Pawnee
Indians, trail-wise cowboys,
aristocratic Englishmen, polo
players, and even Rhodes Scholars.
They came from every state and
social class the United States had
to offer. Roosevelt's
quintessential choice was equal
parts cowboy and soldier. He was a
man who could ride out and defeat
the Spanish every day of the week.
He was the best of the best. These
men, who defeated the Spanish at
the grueling battle of San Juan
Hill later that summer, became
known as Teddy Roosevelt's Rough
Riders. The Rough Rider brand
honors the tradition of Teddy
Roosevelt's Rough Riders by
choosing the very best knife
patterns and materials from around
the world and building the perfect
line of personal cutlery. From the
classic Mother of Pearl Stockman
with 440 Stainless Steel blades to
the long, sleek lines of a
Tactical Linerlock, Rough Rider
offers the finest craftsmanship
and the best cutlery, and like the
Rough Riders, these knives are
always ready every day of the
week.
