Rough Ryder Coal Miner Lockback RR761

The Rough Ryder Coal Miner Lockback is a compact, hardworking folder that pays tribute to the grit and determination of those who built their livelihoods underground. Designed with traditional styling and dependable construction, this knife brings together practical performance and heritage-inspired detail in a form that’s ready for everyday carry.

At the center of this knife is a 2.75" clip point blade crafted from 440A stainless steel, a material known for its durability and resistance to corrosion. The clip point profile offers a fine, controllable tip paired with a gently curved cutting edge, making it well-suited for precision work as well as general utility tasks. Whether you’re opening packages, cutting cord, or handling light-duty outdoor chores, this blade delivers consistent, reliable performance. The match strike pull adds a classic touch while providing extra traction when opening the blade, even with gloves or less-than-ideal conditions.

Unlike traditional slipjoints, this model features a lockback mechanism that adds an extra level of security during use. Once opened, the blade locks firmly into place, giving you confidence when applying pressure or working through tougher materials. It’s a straightforward system that’s easy to operate and trusted for its strength, making it a solid choice for those who want a traditional look with modern reliability.

The handle is constructed from black jigged bone, offering both durability and a textured grip that feels secure in the hand. The jigging pattern not only enhances control but also adds depth and character to the knife’s appearance. Complementing the handle are grooved nickel silver bolsters that provide strength at key points while adding a refined, classic finish. The “Coal Miner” inlay shield is a standout detail, giving the knife a distinct identity and honoring the heritage that inspired its design.

Measuring 3.75" closed, this lockback is compact enough for easy pocket carry while still offering a solid, comfortable grip when in use. It’s a knife that fits naturally into daily routines, ready to handle tasks without unnecessary bulk or complication.

The Rough Ryder Coal Miner Lockback combines traditional craftsmanship with practical features, delivering a dependable everyday tool that reflects both function and history in a compact, carry-ready design.
