Rough Rider Barlow Red Smooth Bone Handle RR2760

The Rough Rider Barlow Red Smooth Bone Handle is a nod to traditional pocketknife design, built for folks who appreciate honest materials and time-tested function. The Barlow pattern has earned its reputation over generations, and this version stays true to that heritage while offering dependable everyday performance. It’s compact, capable, and carries the kind of character that never goes out of style.

This knife features two classic blades that cover a wide range of daily cutting tasks. The 2.5-inch clip blade is ideal for precision work, light slicing, and general use, with a long, controllable edge that feels natural in hand. Paired with it is a 1.75-inch spey blade, a practical shape that excels at controlled cuts and utility chores where safety and accuracy matter. Both blades are crafted from stainless steel with a clean satin finish, offering solid corrosion resistance and easy maintenance without sacrificing a traditional look.

A match strike pull gives each blade a confident, old-school opening feel, adding both visual appeal and functional grip when opening the knife. As a slipjoint, this Barlow relies on strong spring tension rather than a lock, delivering the familiar, legal-friendly operation many users prefer for everyday carry and light-duty work. It’s simple, reliable, and proven by decades of real-world use.

The handle is where this knife truly stands out. Smooth red bone scales provide a rich, classic appearance that looks just as good pulled from a pocket as it does resting in a collection. Nickel silver bolsters add strength at the ends while giving the knife a balanced, traditional profile. Matching nickel silver pins and a shield inlay complete the look, reinforcing the attention to detail that defines this piece.

At just 3.3 inches closed, the Rough Rider Barlow carries easily in a pocket without bulk or discomfort. It’s the kind of knife you can forget you’re carrying until you need it, then trust it to get the job done. Whether you’re a collector, a traditional knife enthusiast, or someone looking for a dependable everyday companion, this Barlow delivers timeless style and practical performance in a compact package.
