SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Rough Ryder A Tribute to Free Masonry Canoe is a classic slipjoint that blends traditional style with symbolic craftsmanship. Built by hand and backed for life, this knife pays homage to Masonic heritage while delivering the dependable utility Rough Ryder is known for.
It features a 440A stainless steel spear point blade paired with a pen blade, both with a mirror-polished finish that gives a clean, reflective edge and timeless appearance.

The 440A steel offers a balance of corrosion resistance and ease of sharpening, making it ideal for everyday carry or collection.
The handles are crafted from smooth blue bone, bringing both elegance and grip to the table. Subtle variations in color and texture make each piece feel unique, while the brass pins and liners ensure structural integrity. The color-filled Masonic shield inlay adds a personal, symbolic detail, complemented by polished nickel silver bolsters that complete the classic Canoe silhouette.

Its slim profile makes it easy to carry, whether you're headed to work, the lodge, or simply keeping tradition alive. The slipjoint mechanism is smooth and consistent, delivering a reliable non-locking action that stays true to its traditional roots.
