SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Rough Rider 250th Anniversary Texas Stockman honors a milestone in American history with a knife pattern that’s long been trusted from open range to back pocket. Built to commemorate 250 years of the United States, this striking folder combines traditional design with bold patriotic character, resulting in a piece that feels both timeless and worthy of the occasion. It’s crafted for those who appreciate heritage cutlery but still expect reliable performance when the work begins.
Equipped with three mirror polished 440 stainless steel blades, this Texas Stockman is ready for a wide range of cutting tasks. The clip point provides precision and piercing capability, the Sheepsfoot delivers controlled, straight cuts, and the spey blade excels at clean slicing. Each blade features a celebratory anniversary etch that reinforces the knife’s collectible appeal while maintaining full functionality. Match strike pulls offer a confident grip for opening, and the slip joint mechanism supplies the smooth, dependable action that traditional knife users have relied on for generations. Measuring 4.75 inches closed, it has a substantial in-hand presence without sacrificing pocket comfort.
The handle construction elevates this knife well beyond the ordinary. Genuine Mother of Pearl catches the light with natural depth, while vivid blue and red acrylic accents create a proud visual tribute to American colors. Brass liners provide structural strength, and ringed nickel silver bolsters paired with nickel silver spacers bring durability with a refined finish. Completing the look is the inlaid red, white, and blue color-filled nickel silver “America 250th” shield, a detail that turns an already handsome knife into a lasting commemorative piece.
