CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Rough Ryder Black Reserve Series is a testament to what happens when traditional craftsmanship meets collector-grade attention to detail. Designed by collectors for collectors, each knife in the series delivers high-end materials, refined construction, and a striking aesthetic that sets it apart from standard production blades. This particular model carries all the hallmarks of the series in a compact, refined package that’s made to last and meant to be displayed with pride.
At the heart of the knife is a 2-inch clip point blade made from durable 440A stainless steel. With a mirror-polished finish and a match strike pull for traditional two-handed opening, this blade is all about precision and control. It’s perfect for small cutting tasks, detailed work, or simply rounding out a collection with a classic profile. The clip point shape provides a fine, controllable tip and a curved edge that handles slicing with ease.
The handle is made from rich black smooth bone, giving the knife a sleek, understated look that pairs beautifully with the high-polish nickel silver pins and bolsters. G-10 underliners add subtle color contrast and structural strength, while brass liners reinforce the knife’s overall build. The color-filled Black Reserve shield set into the handle adds a finishing touch that speaks to the knife’s collectible nature.
Measuring just 3 inches closed and weighing next to nothing, this knife fits easily in a pocket or display case. While it's fully capable of everyday carry, its build quality, styling, and presentation make it equally at home in a curated knife collection. Every knife in the Black Reserve Series also includes a custom display box, allowing you to showcase the knife proudly or store it safely for years to come.
Built by hand, backed for life, and presented with care, this knife is part of a series that’s made to be remembered. Whether you're a seasoned collector or just getting started, the Rough Ryder Black Reserve is a standout. Order it today from SMKW!
