SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Rough Ryder Apta brings a modern edge to the time-tested slip joint design. Built for the user who appreciates both classic function and updated materials, this knife is ready to handle everyday cutting tasks with style and confidence. The 2.75" VG-10 stainless steel sheepsfoot blade offers excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance, while the satin finish gives it a clean, rugged look.
The slip joint action provides a smooth, reliable feel without the need for a lock, making it a great option for places where locking blades aren’t allowed or for those who just like a good traditional knife. The blue Micarta handle scales provide a comfortable, secure grip with a touch of modern style. Stainless steel liners and hardware add strength and durability, while the lanyard hole gives you options for carry or customization.
At 3.75" closed and weighing just 3 ounces, the Apta is slim and pocket friendly, making it a great everyday companion. It also comes with a handy set of extra screws, a Torx driver, and a zippered black nylon mini storage pouch—everything you need to keep this knife in top shape for years to come.
Smoky Mountain Knife Works, the world’s largest knife store, is a Tennessee landmark in the Great Smoky Mountains, drawing over 1.5 million visitors each year to its legendary showroom packed with the best blades from around the world.
