The Rough Rider Red and Black G10 Liner Lock Folder is built to deliver dependable everyday performance with a bold, aggressive look and straightforward functionality. With a 4.5" closed length, it offers a solid, balanced feel in hand while still riding comfortably in the pocket. This is a knife designed for practical carry and daily utility, with styling that stands out without sacrificing purpose.
At the core is a 3.25" drop point blade crafted from stainless steel and finished in a black coating for added durability and a low-reflection, work-ready appearance. The drop point profile gives the blade a strong, controlled tip and a versatile edge that handles slicing, piercing, and general cutting tasks with ease. The black coating helps protect against wear and corrosion while also giving the knife a uniform, tactical aesthetic that holds up well to regular use.
Deployment is quick and reliable thanks to the thumb stud, allowing smooth one-handed opening when needed. Once opened, the liner lock engages securely, keeping the blade firmly in place during use for confidence and control. The extended tang provides added structure and handling support, giving you a positive stop point and improving overall feel during operation. It’s a design focused on function, ensuring the knife performs consistently without unnecessary complexity.
The handle is constructed from black and red G-10, combining durability with a striking visual contrast. G-10 is known for its toughness, resistance to moisture, and long-term stability, making it an ideal material for everyday carry. The red accents break up the black base, giving the knife a bold, energetic appearance while still maintaining a rugged, utilitarian identity. Texturing on the handle enhances grip security, ensuring confident handling in a variety of conditions.
A lanyard hole adds carry versatility, allowing for customization or quick-access attachment options. The tip-up pocket clip keeps the knife secure and positioned for fast deployment, making it easy to carry discreetly and access when needed. Every element of this design is focused on reliability, from deployment to carry to cutting performance.
