This is a beautiful vintage oxblood red Rough Rider bone folding knife. As far as I know, this is the only current model listed anywhere online. These days most knives you come by are lightweight, flimsy ensembles that can't be trusted to perform any semi-trying task. This knife, on the other hand - is HEAVY, solid, and truly built to last... an old-school knife, fit for any job you can think of. That being said, I myself have never used this knife. It is a piece that I've displayed through the years in my collection - but the blades on this knife have never been used. The deep red bone body of the knife is a beautiful element that contrasts brilliantly with the heavy deep yellow brass ends. The blades on this knife are incredibly radiant and reflective, almost looking like mirrors in their untouched gleam. This folding knife is dual bladed, with the larger of the two blades inscribed "rough rider, always ready," with the brand name "Rough Rider" engraved in cursive at the blade's bottom. At the center of the oxblood bone body, is a silver plaque with a detailed plaque that reads "RR" for "Rough Rider" in the middle of a horseshoe. This blade is HEAVY - weighing in at 174 GRAMS! The largest blade measures 8 1/2 cm, with the smaller blade measuring 6 cm. When both blades are extended, the knife measures 9 1/4 inches. When the knife is closed, it measures 4 1/4 inches in length.
~Overall, this is an impossible find - and the perfect gift for the old school collector.
