Rough Ryder Stockman – Imitation Tortoise

The Rough Ryder Tortoise Shell Stockman Folding Knife is a striking blend of classic elegance and rugged utility, perfect for those who appreciate a well-crafted tool that also makes a statement. Part of the Rough Ryder Tortoise Shell Series, this knife showcases the brand’s commitment to combining traditional design elements with modern materials, resulting in a knife that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The Tortoise Shell Stockman features three versatile blades, each made from 440B stainless steel. Known for its superior edge retention and corrosion resistance, 440B steel is an excellent choice for a knife that is meant to be used day in and day out. The clip point blade is perfect for precise cutting tasks, offering a sharp, controllable point that excels at piercing and detail work. The Sheepsfoot blade is ideal for slicing, with its straight edge and curved spine providing excellent control. Lastly, the spey blade is designed for skinning and other delicate tasks, with its rounded tip and flat edge ensuring a clean cut. All three blades feature a satin finish, adding a touch of refinement, and are equipped with match strike pulls for easy opening. The handle of the Tortoise Shell Stockman is where this knife truly shines. Crafted from imitation tortoise shell, the handle is not only durable but also stunningly beautiful, with a rich, amber-like appearance that mimics the natural patterns of real tortoise shell. Brass liners add strength and stability, while nickel silver pins and bolsters provide a polished, classic look. The handle is further adorned with a special nickel silver tortoise shell shield, a unique detail that sets this knife apart from the rest. Measuring 4.5 inches when closed and weighing 3.5 ounces, the Rough Ryder Tortoise Shell Stockman is substantial enough to feel solid in hand, yet compact enough to carry comfortably in your pocket.
