I spent $100 on Great Eastern Cutlery knives and this is what I got: _______

Not sure it's worth mentioning, since it looks so nice, but I think the rams horn is bone,jigged to look similar. They're not trying to hide it, as it says on the box, rams horn bone. The horn is more translucent

You'll never want the boxes unless you toss them in the bin. 😁

No truer statement ever made!

I’ve enjoyed most of the rough ryders, I have had a few duds (but what can you really expect for 10-15$) but it’s a cheap way of trying new traditional patterns without paying a whole lot. Some of them are pretty nice

I agree. I saved a lot of money trying cheapo trappers and several other patterns that I decided that I didn’t like.

That’s a pretty impressive showcase of RRs! It’s really like a “best of” selection in one order. Nice pull on the swayback trapper, the one I got was junk. On the other hand, my denim work knife is every bit as nice as any Rough Ryder Reserves I’ve gotten. Super impressive company over all. They offer so much for literally pennies!

It would be great if Rough Ryder set up a custom shop where you could order any of their patterns with any of their scale materials and a choice of several steels for each blade and a choice of nickel steel, brass or solid silver for bolsters and linings etc. It would be great fun designing your own. I might start with a Sunfish in Artisan Wood with T10 blades.😁

Great selections buddy! I usually don't keep the boxes either, I just don't have the room. Thanks amigo!

Delrin..type of plastic..love all your choices very much only have one the bow trapper and it's for sure a favorite..

I’m so glad you showed that Artisanwood knife and I didn’t know they made that one. I immediately went to Amazon and bought the Trapper style. Thanks for showing that one I am a Rough Rider collector

I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! It’s definitely a beauty.

Come on! Open that box up! Lol. The half hawk is a beauty. Those clip slips are awesome, wish they sold them separately. Nice bone covers on the carnivore. The artisan wood covers are beautiful - I think the name is awkward or they’d sell better. How about Irish burl? Mossy burl? Something foresty. Love my work knife. Dig the big Barlow, beautiful covers. Love my bow trapper, too. Beautiful copperhead. I think that’s $127 well spent.

Thank you! I believe it was a well spent amount also! I agree about the name.. mossy burl.

Very nice, Mark! Congratulations on your first copperhead! You will get them like me and Pete! Good solid choices, I love Rough Ryder, great knives for the money. I will be showing some soon! Oh, I picked up a Marbles canoe in the Ram Horn, I swear we are on the same wavelength! Great video!

Love the Half Hawk and Carnivore Jack..for sure..need to get one of those. For your sticker dilemma you could use clear plexiglass and lay on top of your wood showcase area..thanks for sharing Mark..

Quite a good haul. Some secy knives for sure.

Thank you!

I live in Canada and have a small obsession with Rough Ryders. Every single time I order from SMKW, it cost me well over $100 for 4 or 5 of them. Usually with shipping, around $130 or so. Well worth it to me though for the quality and variety. I can’t imagine what a few GEC’s would cost to get to me.

Average 15.88. How do they do it? Great unboxing video. Thanks.

I bought a handful and some where OK, a few were duds, and I ultimately found them unsatisfying. If you just need a beater knife, you can’t argue with the value proposition though.

You know, I guess I'm Lucky, I haven't had any major issues with the "RR" knives I've purchased! However Frost knives? That's another story ( a lot of Hit & miss selections).

I’ve only bought a couple, but I’ve never had a bad experience. The half hawk was awesome when I got mine

That's a heck of a haul for the money. I'm really enjoying the Copper Swirl series that they make.

Thanks Mark for the shoutout!!!!!

You have some good ones there. I like the variety RR has. That single blade half Hawk is on my want list.

My original black bow Trapper was advertised as having T10 steel but it's definitely not carbon steel. (I talked to Andy on a livestream & he confirmed they requested it be T10, but they got 440a on the first run.) I put the blade in saltwater vinegar for 24 hours with no patina. They should have the black bow Trapper in carbon, and the red bow Trapper in stainless steel. I learned from that test 440a is incredibly stainless compared to carbon steel.

I think you picked some great knives! What other brand offers that selection and quality of knives for that price?! Only Rough Ryder

Good review. thank you. i have 2 bow trappers and there quality just seems better for some reason. Andy Armstrong?

Those are great knives, i own lotsa rough ryder's , they Always been good pocket knives

The variety of RR is great. I favor the two bladed Bow trapper. But my most recent RR is the RRR007 Nomad.

I’ve been considering the carbon half hawk. I couldn’t tell from the video, how deep does the tip set in the frame on yours?

@jimmyj4811

I've got two, and the tips sit deep enough where you won't get cut. However, both knives have the blades hard against the liners on one side.

Very good choices brother

Good stuff :) good choices

Iirc the original bow trapper was supposed to be in T10, but they just didn’t use it and it was 440 instead lol I believe the new ones are T10. I like the pattern a lot, but it’s a little thick behind the edge.

Mark i say money well spend! sorry about the tip on the swayback but otherwise very nice buddy.

The blue bone is nice

Thank you,

Bummer on the tip of the work knife

Mark I’m just saying they take me close to a hour to clean each one I get!!!!!!! I probably have about 100 of them they take time to clean them because they come so dirty!!!!!! Good luck with them bud!!!!!!! Be well!!!!!!!

It's Delrin, but yeah close. Question: Why is it called a half hawk? Why not a full hawk?

A full hawkbill has more curve in the blade like a pruning or linoleum knife

Thanks Mark, a great video and some lovely knives, some of I had never seen before, especially the Artesian wood one, beautiful burr wood, I will be keeping an eye out for your reviews of these and I have just subscribed to your channel, I was recommended to your channel by RJ of RJ Knives. I will take a look at your backlog of videos Thanks again Take care Sam

That was fun.

Isn't it great to get a big box of knives?

I'm really tired of over packaging. I like the older Rough Ryder boxes before the magnets. They basically fit the knife. Did they make as nice a box for presentation? No but what the knife is presented, what's the point of all that box. Rumor has it, the Big R is going to be less frequent in the future. I'm hoping that is true! The little leather sheath for the Carnivore Jack is similar to the one that came with the Dog Bone! I'm might pick it up. Oh wait...Big R. Maybe not! Really nice selection!
