Rough Rider 163 Brass Finish Miniature Folding Knife

The Rough Rider 163 is a tiny novelty folder, a 1-inch stainless clip point blade fitted to a gold-finished stainless handle, built more as a keepsake and pocket curiosity than a working everyday cutting tool. Novelty knives like this have long held a place in traditional cutlery collections, valued for their charm and craftsmanship rather than heavy daily use.

At this size, the 163 functions best for the smallest tasks, opening a letter, trimming a loose thread, or handling detail work a full-size blade would be clumsy for. The clip point blade shape gives a reasonably controlled tip even at miniature scale, and the all-stainless construction keeps the little knife durable despite its size, holding up to being tossed in a bag or drawer without the wear a less sturdy material would show. Its gold finish gives it a distinctive, collectible look that stands out from Rough Rider's more traditional bone and wood handled patterns, catching light in a way a plain stainless finish simply doesn't, especially when displayed alongside darker-handled pieces.

Rough Rider has built a following among collectors specifically for pieces like this, small, affordable, and easy to add to a growing collection without a major investment. Explore more Budget Knives.
