Rough Ryder Whittler - Amber Jigged Bone 18

I recently purchased a Rough Rider Whittler pocket knife and I was very impressed with the service from Heinnie Haynes. The knife was ready to use as soon as I received it, which was a pleasant surprise, there was no need to sharpen it. The quality is superb. Being UK friendly means it's always with me. The price is unbelievable, don't spend a fortune when you can buy a Rough Rider at these prices. The knife was very well packed and I will be buying some more for friends and family.

Nearly perfect. If you are verry picky you wil find in my case 1 flaw. The bone scale on 1 part of aprox 1cm lenght is not flush with the liner. This has no influence on the quality of the scale in that i do not think it wil become a problem. What could be a problem is that this is an old school knive like they used to build them in 1954. In that time evverything was not flush and perfect. Looking for that, go buy an CRKT modern frame lock, nothing wrong with that too. This knive like the old 1954 wil not fall apart, and keep cutting for ever. That is the demands that a pocket nive had in those days, but now with better 440 steel wich is around ssince the 70s. I saw old knives and the 440 steel is better, Victorinox uses the same steel, although they have perfect finnish. Accept this knive as an old knive made with the same demands as back then. 9 out of 10, go get some !

What a great knife, does all I want it to.My other knives will do the rest.Pretty sharp out of the box but it will give me something to do getting it better.Great knife,great service what great value.

Superb knife, quite sharp out the box, minimal work required to hone to a razors edge, not overly heavy. You know its in your pocket & ready when you need it, but not obtrusive at all, fits neatly in fishing box aswell, all in all, a perfect edc.

I purchased this knife after seeing it used by many US whittlers/woodcarvers on You Tube. My knife has already been used to carve several lovespoons, mainly in recycled hard woods, so far it has only needed stropping to maintain the edge, I did not expect this performance from such a reasonably priced knife, Well Pleased.

Excellent quality whittler. Tight blades don't feel like they will close up on use. Good sharp blades from box... used without even needing a strop. Fits great in that little pocket in my jeans. Just bear in mind that blade is 2.25 inch and closed measures 3.5...a total length of 5.75 inches (largest blade that is) and ignore the 6.25 inch it states in the specs lol.. delivery fast as it could be.. customer emails with progress. I will be back.

Very nice knife, I am so happy with it the knife is so much better looking than the pictures. Nice and sharp straight out of the box, amazing price to, well recomended.

I have an A. Wright & Sons (Sheffield) bone handled whittler. I wanted a folding whittler for ease of carry when out and about. The knife (closed) was well finished, smooth and solid. The nail marks are placed too close to the pivot which makes each blade more difficult to open than they should be, given the strength of the springs - which are just right. All three blades were sharp out of the box but with uneven bevel grinds. The two small blades stropped to keen edges. The large clip blade had a large nick about 1/8'' from the point and I had to grind this out. It is taking some effort to bring this blade to an edge sharp enough for branch whittling. All three blades rub slightly in the closed position. The two small blades are quite thin but the main blade is very chunky. For a tenner it could have been worse, but for another fiver or so, you're in Victorinox territory - tried and tested quality control with consistent blade steel and keen edge retention.

I've been looking at Rough Rider knives for a while now and finally took the plunge and bought this little beauty. You really are getting a LOT for your money. I'm blown away by the sheer quality of this knife. Money definitely well spent! And people weren't lying when they were saying about HH's delivery service! Ordered it Tuesday around 1pm and recieved it today (Wednesday). Cheers, HH!
