Comparing the Marbles D2 Sowbelly and the Rough Ryder Sowbelly!!!!!!!

[@Cameron_OKG]

Most of us traditional guys really appreciate a rough ryder . Keep them coming .

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

BoneyBlades yo no joke get one it is as good as some 300 knives I’m telling you

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

BoneyBlades I sure will and it’s almost time for a collection update again!!!!!!!

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

I’m trying thanks

[@Stans_Cutlery_Universe]

Great looking knives. Thanks for sharing, Live Long Prosper and Collect your Own Way!

[@paulhanley5811]

you are spot-on . RR is fantastic , as is marbles , they feel fab in your hand , i love case , got a few , wish i had a few more , a decent case is £75 even £100 , thats about a days wages here for a working man if you know what i mean , getting a case is a commitment not only to spending the money , so RR its a chance to play with the big boys with out getting your hands burnt . as always stuff costs more in the uk , it is what it is , much love keep on keping on

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Yeah Paul around the same here for a decent Case knife!!!!! And yes for the money RR knives are very hard to beat thanks for sharing take care!!!!!

[@WilliamsKnifeLife]

They really did a nice job on mine. I have the Rough Ryder RR881 Sowbelly in tobacco bone & I have been comparing it to Marbles D2 also. I've been saving up cardboard to see how much longer D2 holds up compared to 440a. The Marbles Sowbelly in 440a is only 2 dollars cheaper than the D2 micarta one. I'm definitely getting more Marbles D2 in my knife future.

[@WilliamsKnifeLife]

I asked Andy at an SMKW live if Marbles & Rough Ryder shared the same tooling & he said they are both made in the same factory in China. V

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Williams Knife Life oh wow ok cool thanks William omg it is so good I can’t believe this!!!!!!!

[@theedcden5515]

Man these are both sweet looking knives. I cannot wait for my D2 Marbles to arrive. I have a few from the green micarta Rough Ryder series - looking forward to comparing them! Thanks for showing these!

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

THE EDC DEN they are sweet as a matter of fact I ordered the lockback D2 I love it

[@theedcden5515]

@@jerseyknifeguy6382 Awesome. I passed on the D2 lockback but only because I had recently gotten a Buck 112 Ranger (not that they are the same knife, but single blade, lockback, clip point, enough similarities... So I got the D2 Trapper, Jumbo Trapper, and Sowbelly. I can't wait!

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

THE EDC DEN omg I want the rosewood ranger 112 ive been looking at it hard

[@theedcden5515]

JerseyKnife Guy Ha, DO IT. I have the rosewood on the 110 - it’s real nice 👍 My 112 has ebony wood.

[@ivancho5854]

This is an interesting direction that SMKW are going with the D2. I'm still learning about blade steels. Thanks for showing them. 👍

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Ivancho yes it’s a good knife I love it and the D2 is a win for me!!!!!!! Thanks

[@rustyknifelover4463]

Same factory and I agree that the Marbles are amazing.

[@andrewnawarycz3026]

How about swap the covers out with each other?

[@michaelpattie9244]

Super cool looking knifes thanks stay well

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

michael pattie thanks Mike I’ll tell ta just get one!!!!!!!

[@traditionallarry5378]

They both are great looking but I will go for the micarta since I love micarta

[@Cameron_OKG]

I think the quality difference is only because they are getting better at making them . They are made in the same place by the same people . Those people are just getting better . The new rough Ryder's are amazing.

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

BoneyBlades holly smokes my mind is blown!!!!!,

[@KnifeDetector]

They both look great! Be well friend!

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Knife Detector you have to get this D2 knife man it’s good

[@slick_slicers]

This is where I’d like to see traditionals going... traditional styles and cover materials, but with better steels for the blades. The only Marbles knife I have is a Barlow with a 440A blade. I’d like to see the same genuine rams horn handle, but with a 440C blade.

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Slick Slicers holly smokes no lie it feels like a very expensive knife I’m loving this knife........ thanks so much please get one you’ll love it

[@stevehuffman7453]

or 1095/5160/T10 or other good high carbon non-stainless steel blade. I like a nice patina on my blades. I loathe "mirror polished" fingerprint and smudge magnets.

[@rhino5419]

Hello Pete. If you like Marbles and i know you like hunting scenes, go on SMKW and look at Marbles clasp knife in black bone. Bass, deer and eagle. Have a look just for fun. Stay cool, stay calm and stay safe my friend.

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

RHINO 54 thanks RHINO I’ll check um out this knife is blowing my mind holly smokes man it’s good I don’t know how good you can get for 16 bucks wow 🤩

[@TheMartialist]

Rough rider is an amazing brand! As is marbles!

[@timwilliams8343]

Kissing Crane puts out great knives also!

[@MrCrescendo]

Would have really wanted to see the blades. You never once opened them.

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Erik Nelson I’ll do another video I was rushing so much going on my bad

[@Lumpy_Peter]

Almost 14 min long video, not once did you open those blades. What about walk and talk? How are the pulls?

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Peter M. Peter pull is light brotha and she’s a saber grind I’ll do another video because I’m forcing the pitina it’s t10 carbon steel on this one I have it dipped right now

[@Lumpy_Peter]

@@jerseyknifeguy6382 Looking forward to that.

[@stevehuffman7453]

my D2 sowbelly has great walk n talk. Blade pull is a consistent smooth "5" for all three blades. Factory edges are even, blades are sharp out of the box.

[@stevehuffman7453]

High quality? (GOOD) Case or better fit and finish? Centered blades/NO blade/liner rub, Excellent blade heat treat, even grinds, and sharp out of the box on the Rough Rider/Ryder and Marbles?!? 🤯🤯😳 Old news. 🙄 Out of 60 plus RR, I've had ONE with a minor defect. A (Large) Smooth White Bone Coke Bottle pattern had a small crack at the center pin, pile side. "Big Deal". I have Case knives with the same cosmetic issue. Cracks at the pins with bone covers can AND DOES happen regardless of brand and price point. 🙄 A drop of the same off brand super glue fixes the problem, regardless of brand and price point of the knife. Since it does not affect the functionality, a cracked cover is just a minor cosmetic issue. 😇 My RR all have a reasonable 4 to 5 pull on all the blades. (the stockmans all have a Buck 301-ish 4 pull 🥰 on all the blades. The canoes, moose, barlows, and other patterns are a 5 ON ALL THE BLADES ON EACH KNIFE.) Those with a half stop are a smooth ~5.5 pull. RR has consistently had the sharpest edges out of the box of all the new knives I've bought in the last 11 years, even beating my Buck 301 and several Buck 110's in out of the box sharpness.

[@hiboucanne5662]

gr8 knives, not a fan of D2 though ATB

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Hibou Canne ok cool I understand but I have this one sharp as tities!!!!!!!!!
