LIVE Review - Rough Ryder Amber Jigged Bone Barlow Pocket Knife RR201

[@gizmocarr3093]

It is nice seeing older Rough Rider knives collected. You don’t have to spend as much as others older knives and they seem a little better made for some reason to me. Figuring out how old they are is hard. Rough Rider made so many models and types of knives some are pretty interesting to see. Thank you for showing these two off.

There's a spreadsheet floating around the AAPK forums that dates the knives, but honestly I'm not sure how accurate it is nor does it account for variations. Thanks Gizmo. www.allaboutpocketknives.com/page/jerry-brockman-rough-rider-spreadsheet.htm

@@ThriftyKaniffy Thank you I will take a look.

Sorry I missed the live. Now I need to look more closely at some of my older Barlows to see which pen blade I have. Older one my have a denser bone or possibly thicker bone. You might want to check blade thickness.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Eyeballing the two, there's no discernible difference in the thickness of the blades. Handles are ever so slightly different in thickness. Older (round shield version) being thicker. Thanks Tobias.

[@byronkennedy7912]

Thanks, TK. Stockman and Barlows are my favorite patterns.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Glad you're enjoying the reviews Byron. I've been heavy on Barlows lately.

[@ihopetowin]

Fine pieces, I think I prefer the older version. The darker bone feels more nostalgic, suits the knife very well.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

The coloring is a richer dark red on the older piece, and probably more accurately amber on the newer. Thanks ihopetowin.

[@puzzlering1]

Thank you, a great video, a good comprehensive comparison review. Thank you for the recommendation as I just got this Barlow (new version) at the start of the month, very pleased, another one for the Barlow collection. Take care Sam

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Glad it was helpful, Sam. Hard to go wrong with amber jig bone. Have a good weekend.

I just ordered the 2 barlow for 19 on Amazon looks the same but the shield on the handle is smaller🤔

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Cool, hope you enjoy them, Joe.

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

Wow the jigging on them are fantastic they awesome I have one of them and I sharpened the plunge to get easier access to the blade and nail nick!!!!! Stay well thrifty

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Sorry you missed the live. I was looking forward to talking to you.

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

@@ThriftyKaniffy yeah I’m disappointed too tell me again when your doin your lives!!!!! I’ve been going nuts with this puppy thanks bud

[@steveg.1502]

Nice Barlows. The jigging on the bone looks really good. The horse shoe looks a lot better than the big ol you know what.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Yes it does! Thanks for watching the show Steve.

[@diverdave2179]

That new one looks very familiar (Thanks TK!). Am looking to get one of these traditional Barlows to pair with the RRR. You had to sneak the R(ectal) T(hermometer) in there , haha!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Just a brief mention 😁. The RR and RRR would make for a nice pairing. Thanks for watching DD, I know you can't be there live.

[@JoseGonzalez-yx6vm]

Beautiful amber jig bone really makes the simple Barlow design stand out. Too bad camera has focus problems, but it shows color and detail really well.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

My apologies. The first and lat time I'll use it for this sort of thing. Thanks Jose.

[@JoseGonzalez-yx6vm]

no apology needed😊

[@paddyspotatopeelers2154]

Love me a Barlow brother. Atb paddy

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Much appreciated Paddy. Glad you enjoyed the Barlow show.

[@chaddamron3877]

If that badboy was a single blade Barlow would be perfect - got a yellow handle 1 - their a beast of a work horse

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

I'm betting in time RR make more of the single blade Barlows like they did the Classic Cinnamon.

[@michaelbeams9553]

Very nice knives , traditional patterns are all I carry anymore . Here in N.Y.C. anything "Tactical" screams weapon to the local P.D.(even a visible pocket clip is a problem , considered displaying the knife) Traditionals (a.k.a. Grandpa knives ) are much more accepted as work knives or tools. Pull out a "Tactical" and unfortunately you are going to attract some unwanted attention .Pull out a Traditional and you're very likely to have someone say " Hey , my dad / granddad carried a knife just like that " and you can begin a conversation about the value of carrying a pocket knife . Great Video. Peace , Be Free.

Perception, not possession appears to be 9/10 of the law. Thanks Michael.

[@SubUrbanNinja-EDC]

Nice

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Ahh the Barlows, I do like my Barlows. Nice little variations here. Thanks for having a peek Glock.
