High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Rough Rider Blue Dragon Peanut is proof that a compact pocketknife can still carry serious presence. Built in the classic Peanut pattern, this knife delivers everyday reliability in a size that disappears in the pocket but never feels underbuilt. It’s designed for folks who appreciate traditional slipjoint construction, practical blade options, and a handle that stands out without crossing into flash for flash’s sake.
This Peanut features a versatile two-blade setup with stainless steel clip and pen blades. The 1.75-inch clip point handles most day-to-day cutting tasks with ease, offering a fine tip for detail work and a strong belly for slicing. The 1.25-inch pen blade is ideal for lighter tasks where control matters, making this knife a dependable choice for opening packages, trimming cord, or handling quick jobs around the house, shop, or camp. Both blades open with a match strike pull, adding traction and a touch of old-school character that traditional knife fans appreciate.
As a true slipjoint, this knife relies on a strong backspring rather than a lock, keeping it legal in many places and true to classic pocketknife roots. The action is smooth and deliberate, giving you confidence every time you open or close a blade. Stainless steel construction ensures corrosion resistance and easy maintenance, making it a practical option for everyday carry.
The handle is where the Blue Dragon Peanut really earns its name. Blue bone scales bring depth and character, with natural variations that make each knife feel unique. Nickel silver bolsters add strength at the ends while giving the knife a refined, time-tested look. A nickel silver shield inlay completes the handle, reinforcing its traditional styling while balancing the bold blue color with classic metal accents.
At just 2.75 inches closed, this Peanut is built for comfort and convenience. It rides easily in a pocket, watch pocket, or pouch without weighing you down, yet it still feels solid in hand thanks to its balanced construction. Whether you’re a collector of traditional patterns or someone who wants a reliable small knife for daily use, the Rough Rider Blue Dragon Peanut delivers honest utility with standout style.
