The Rough Rider Bow Trapper sets an uncommon high-carbon steel for this style of knife, a satin-finished bowie-shaped blade in T10 tool steel with a black Micarta handle, stainless bolsters and an inlay shield.
T10 is a high-carbon tool steel, capable of taking a noticeably sharper edge than the basic stainless steels found in most budget traditional knives, though it demands more regular maintenance to stay rust-free than a true stainless blade would. The bowie-inspired blade shape brings cutting aggression to a traditional trapper pattern, a distinctive departure from the usual clip and spey blade combination. Black Micarta, a resin-impregnated fabric laminate, is one of the more durable handle materials available for a traditional pattern, standing up to daily handling far better than bone alone. Stainless bolsters add durability at the pivot points, and an inlay shield gives collectors a spot to personalize or simply admire the craftsmanship that went into shaping the blade and fitting the bolsters.
The knife opens the traditional way with a slip joint and closes without a locking mechanism, held open by spring tension alone. Rough Rider backs its knives with straightforward, dependable construction at an accessible price. Explore more Trapper Knives.
