At the heart of this knife are two robust spear point blades, both crafted from 440 stainless steel for an optimal balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening.

The deep texture of the checkering enhances handling, ensuring that the knife remains steady in hand whether you’re cutting rope, whittling wood, or simply admiring the craftsmanship. Nickel silver bolsters add a touch of refinement and reinforce the structure of the handle, while nickel silver pins hold everything together with unwavering stability. The genuine Rough Ryder shield is proudly embedded in the handle, marking this knife as part of a legacy that spans 30 years.
