Rough Ryder’s “Classic Carbon” Lockback is a traditional pocket knife with yellow composition handles. The handles also feature nickel silver pins, bolsters, a special Classic Carbon shield, and brass liners.

The “Classic Carbon” Lockback has a single polished T10 carbon steel clip point blade. The carbon steel used in these knives is easy to sharpen, but prone to rust. It is best to keep the blades well maintained, clean, and oiled. The bolsters have a pinched bolster shape, giving them a slight indent on each end of the knife. They also feature a slant-R embossed design. The blade opens with a match strike pull. Unlike a standard nail nick or long pull, a match strike pull has serrations inside the groove of the pull. These serrations allow you to strike a match with your knife.

This knife is a lockback, and as the name suggests, it locks in the open position. The blade is closed by releasing the lock on the back spacer of the knife. This knife features a clip point blade, which has many uses, both everyday household tasks and more rigorous work duties. The ability of this knife to lock makes it safer for more demanding or precise tasks.

The “Classic Carbon” Lockback is a perfect knife for a collector, or for use as an everyday carry. The yellow composition handles combined with the pins and shield give this knife a timeless appearance. With more than ten patterns in this series, it doesn’t get much more traditional than this.
