Reviews for Rough Ryder Classic Carbon II Large Stockman

Bought the knife as a farm knife. For opening bales, bags of compost, and feed The knife is fine. Looks well. Feels ok in the hand. Knife blades a little thin for serious work, like levering stones out of hooves or cutting heavy woven bags of feed. I'd say it's a gentleman's, or gentlewoman's knife. So. Of youbeantvtobskice apples, open letters, and you occasionally have light use for a blade. I have other,single blades lambs foot knives which I much prefer. Much more useful in gardens, farms, and around livestock. Despite the fact that I bought it as a stockmans knife, I'm much more likely to reach for a no 9 opinel, or an ATKO lambs foot knife. Additionally, the makers plaque on the knife looks like it will come off shortly. For me. With a working knife, I can get much more functionality from Opinel, ATKO, or Mora for half the price. As a non work pocket knife though, I like it. Looks nice. Fits well in the hand. And large and sharp enough to manage simple tasks.

The large blade and the sheepsfoot blade came with a little play from side to side. The finishes are not so good, it has a small gape between liners. Each blade has a little rust, all around is nice and i like the color and material of the blade. It is very sharp out of the box but needs to be cleaned and lubricated to open and close properly
