Rough Ryder Sowbelly Silver Select Black Pearl Pocket Knife RR986

[@rwa123]

Congratulations John! Wow, the 49th of 49! Did you pop a Champagne cork? You truly deserved it after a 2 1/2 year search. What a fun and also frustrating at times adventure it must have been! I am facing Texas and giving you a salute. Many hear the calling, but few complete the task. Well done sir! Cheers, RW

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks, RW. A great amount of fun in collecting them all!

[@knifetrain3118]

There is something very satisfying about completing a collection you’ve been after. Well done!👍

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Yes, it was a long time coming. Thanks for having a look, knifetrain.

[@jasonbeecher509]

What a wonderful collection of rough rider sow bellies. Congratulations my friend

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks for taking a look, Jason.

[@Speedsix13]

Amazing dedication finding all the sow belly RRs.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Much appreciated, Speedsix. It took some doing to find them all.

[@happykt]

Congratulations on completing your Rough Ryder sowbelly collection! You got me hooked on sowbellies about a year ago and I have about half the ones you have.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

That's awesome Happy. Never knew anyone else to be trying to collect a great number of these.

[@dougwatkins5441]

Isn't it a good feeling when you find that knife to complete the collection. Then for me the what pattern to start now kicks in!! Good job TK

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

100% Doug. I dunno if I'll be quite as obsessive with other sub collections going forward, but I do like a good many Arthur Wright and Sons.

[@jeffjackson5331]

Beautiful knives. Congrats! You folks have a wonderful evening and a wonderful weekend.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks very much Jeff. You too have yourself a great weekend.

[@davidwilliams1805]

Congrats buddy! An outstanding collection! Thank you for sharing!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks David. It's been a blast finding all of these. Take care.

[@deanP.]

Congrats on finding that knife that completes your RR sowbelly collection.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks very much Dean. I hope you enjoyed all the RRs.

[@Checkmate1954]

Congrats. That's great. It's a beautiful knife too. Thanks TK

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

The black pearl is certainly one of the nicer looking ones. Thanks for having a look, Check.

[@jerseyknifeguy6382]

They are such pretty knives!!!!! What a collection you have there John super cool brother……. Thanks for showing them I can look at them over and over again….. stay well John I’ll catch you later 😊

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks Pete, glad you enjoyed the look at them all. Not sure there is anybody else silly enough to try and complete such a collection. Have a great weekend.

[@garylyman4922]

The search has ended! Congratulations on the completion of your quest. That’s a beautiful piece, definitely a non user it’s way too nice.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks, Gary. A heck of a journey in finding them all. Lots of time put into just figuring out what was out there.

[@Pocket_EDC]

Very stunning knife. Congrats on completing your set!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Much appreciated, Pocket. Glad you enjoyed the collection of sowellys.

[@Stans_Cutlery_Universe]

Congrats on completing the collection. What a beautiful piece, you should get them all out and do a complete collection video. Thanks for sharing and God bless. P.S. Cool slide show, I still think a full video of all of them would be cool.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks, Stan. I've done an 8 part video of my sowbelly collection in the past. There's only a few I've added since then.

[@rustyminer]

Congratulations TK. I knew you were short one, but I didn't know which one. I am on eBay often in the Rough Ryder search and I don't remember seeing this one. Very nice, thanks for sharing.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks very much Rusty. I had a search feature on and still missed it for a few days, had a little help from a viewer on IG. Wasted no time in getting it.

[@RandysWSG]

Really happy you found this one, I have been keeopng my eyes peeled for this one for a while. Fantastic knife and great video my friend!!

[@RandysWSG]

Loved the slide show at the end

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks, Randy. Lots of hunting and searching. Not likely to do another sub-collection quite like this one.

[@singingtoad]

Very pretty knife and thanks for the cool slideshow at the end too. 👍 Take care my friend and Cheers!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Glad you liked it, Dave. Thanks for taking a look. Cheers eh!

[@davidkurle5418]

Cool piece! And that slide show was fantastic, buddy!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks very much David. Hope enjoyed the look at them all.

[@SlipjointSawyer]

Loved it John! So many of these I want to get 🙏🏼 really glad you were able to collect them all!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks very much Matt. Couldn't have done it without your help.

[@rasputinscastle]

Wow, very nice. Congratulations on your sow belly collection. Know your tickled to complete it. 😊

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks very much. I appreciate it and I'm very happy to have found them all.

[@talkeetna911ify]

Beautiful artwork on this knife

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

The bolsters are quite extraordinary for a RR. Thanks, talkee.

[@talkeetna911ify]

@@ThriftyKaniffy yes the bolsters really set of the pearl handles . No wonder you looked for two years for the holy grail. It's a beauty.

[@garrockwaters304]

Nice slide show! Very good.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks very much, Garrock.

[@mikeadams2538]

Nice collection! Thanks for sharing. I didn’t realize there were so many RR in the Sowbelly pattern. I’ve only got the red pick bone. Looks like I’ve got a long way to go 😆

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Yea, LOL. If you have just one I wish you all the luck in the world. Thanks, Mike.

[@gvanderweele2334]

Very nice, stunning quality! I have a few of the RIder made knives before the Y entered the name. The quality and style is a tad classier.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

A touch better with the older ones. Still the new ones are good value.

[@SeanT_1967]

Wow….. that’s fantastic John…. Pleased for yo being able to complete that sub collection…!!!! Congratulation’….!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥😎👊🏻 A very fancy looking knife… a Sunday or special occasion carry for sure…😍😍😍 Thanks brother.. oh and fantastic slideshow too…!!!! Catch you soon brother 😎👊🏻

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks Sean there was considerable effort put into finding them all. Have a great weekend.

[@preppy890]

Nice finish to your collection. Only fitting as The Black Pearl is famously elusive.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Yes, it was meant to be, Preppy.

[@kathleensmith370]

Congrats on your collection

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

I appreciate it, Kathleen. I was a fun sub-collection to put together. Have a great weekend.

[@propblast82nd]

Nice , wish I discovered RR years ago

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

They made some great ones.

[@kathleensmith370]

great slide show

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Glad you found it enjoyable. A lot of work put into it. Thanks, Kathleen

[@gvanderweele2334]

Amazing collection👍

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks, G.

[@lewisgreenway5065]

A real beauty well done for snagging it, wish Rough Ryder would make single blade Sowbelly, like the look of the Case single blade but to expensive. 😁

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

They make a single blade option but it's a locking blade unfortunately. Thanks, Lewis.

[@lewisgreenway5065]

@@ThriftyKaniffy not seen it but as you know lock knives illegal in UK I only see what Heinnie Haines stock mostly, although I do check a few other retailers, might find one some day. 😁

[@dm1523]

Very cool find. I wonder if SMKW keeps at least one of every knife they make. Maybe an in house museum or something. If not you may have assembled a unique collection.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

I know they don't do a good job keeping the RR website up to date. It's a real shame. It certainly made finding them all more difficult.

[@rustyminer]

WHAT AN OUTRO!!!! GREAT SHOW!!!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks, Rusty!
