The Rough Rider 250th Anniversary Canoe honors a landmark in American history with timeless craftsmanship and patriotic flair. Part of a special series celebrating 250 years of the United States, this compact folding knife blends collectible appeal with practical functionality, making it a standout piece for enthusiasts and everyday users alike.
This Canoe features dual blades—a spear point and a pen—crafted from mirror polished 440 stainless steel with a commemorative blade etch. Both blades operate on a slip joint mechanism and feature a match strike pull for smooth, controlled deployment. The spear point blade delivers precision and strength for piercing and general utility, while the pen blade provides versatility for detail work and everyday tasks. Together, they offer a balance of function and tradition in a compact package.
The handle combines lustrous Mother of Pearl with vibrant blue and red acrylic, creating a bold, celebratory appearance that reflects the knife’s patriotic theme. Brass liners provide strength, while ringed nickel silver bolsters and nickel silver spacers reinforce the handle and add a polished, classic look. An inlaid red, white, and blue color-filled nickel silver “America 250th” shield completes the aesthetic, giving this Canoe a distinct, collectible presence.
At 3.62 inches closed, the knife is small enough for easy carry but substantial enough to provide a comfortable grip and dependable control during use. Rough Rider’s dedication to traditional patterns, quality materials, and attention to detail ensures this Canoe is as functional as it is visually striking, making it an ideal addition to any collection or pocket.
