I agree! They provide a decent steel for the price and look great too.
The problem I have with Rough Rider is that they are such a bargain it's hard to go back to paying three times more for other brands.
Yes, it is, josha840
Well, time sure gets away from me these days. "Tonight or tomorrow" has turned into "day after tomorrow", but here are the other knives from my Thanksgiving buying spree....
I realized that a batch of knives that I ordered around Thanksgiving have never been posted in this RR & Related thread. I'll post my newest Rough Riders in this post, and put my "related slip joints" (mostly Marbles) in a separate post tonight or tomorrow.

My interest in rough riders is on and off, I have a few but this 5 blade sow is my favorite. Really cool knife, very comfortable in hand but a potato in the pocket. I may get another version next time I go on a RR kick.
.... I'm interested to see how it sharpens and holds an edge. Interestingly the box states high carbon but blade is marked 440. However a little vinegar on the blade tip brought a quick patina where it is not coated. The fit and finish on these is exceptional. No liner gaps, blade wobble, or rub. Plus extras like nice blade swedges, and pinched rattail bolsters.
Or 8 to 10 times...
