Any baby copperheads?

Yep, I have one. One of my two RRs. Nice little knife, too. I'll add a pic at some point when I get around to taking photos of my RRs.

Just bought this in an antique store , but it isn't antique , and probably never will carry it. Just liked it.



Schrade Uncle Henry made probably in 2010 . Well made and sharp and never used.

Good pickup Harry!

Not the best picture but 2 Rough Riders and a Colt Barlow.

Excellent knives for the money.

I've been looking for a scratted RR Barlow like that top one. I really like that knife. Nice knives.

Thanks Gevo!!! I thought a little unusual to have all match strike long pulls and a nail nick too. I wish were an older Uncle Henry though.

Don't forget the little armor hide peanut sized barlow as well!

Thank You! I haven't seen any of the scratted bone handles around for a while.

The Rough Riders, Colts, etc. kickstarted my small collection. Dispite the price, they often almost look too good to use [emoji4] I have acquired a nice bunch of them:

The RR Barlow is certainly an extremely decent version of the pattern, well put together, fine range of handles and very sharp indeed. A credible knife in all ways.

Thanks, Will

Some drool worthy knives there. I especially like the looks of that Lansky stockman and Rough Rider yellow handle canoe.

Has anybody tried out the fixed blades/hunters? Did they come sharp also and how durable for actual use? pictures in hand would be nice too

 

[cchu518]

I think I've showed this one before. The grinds were off, fit and finish was ok but not as good as my slippies for this brand.

The surprising thing is the heat treat was great. After I reprofiled it, it kept an edge through some kitchen floor work. I was digging, cutting hard plastic etc... I use it as a work knife but I don't think it's going to replace a mora or fiddleback anytime soon, lol.

 

[swaybacksteve]

Thanks cchu. Looks like I can still use one as a steak knife at the cabin . Thinking of making up a set of 6 for a gift also for my bro. But a knife with a more traditional look. Might throw in a mora as they are cheap enough!

I tried to capture the aging of the yellow handles, but it doesn't really show on the pic:
