The Rough Ryder Black Appaloosa Doctor Knife—a sleek, no-frills tool that’s as striking as it is dependable. At 3.75 inches closed, it’s sized just right to slide into your pocket or toolkit without weighing you down. This knife sports a single 440A stainless steel spear blade, mirror-polished to a shine and ready to slice through twine, fabric, or whatever else you throw at it. The match strike pull gives it that satisfying snap when you open it, blending old-school vibes with practical ease.
The handle’s the real star here: black Appaloosa smooth bone with a mottled, almost marbled look that’s unique to every piece, paired with nickel silver bolsters that add a sharp contrast and a bit of heft. Brass liners keep it all together, and at just over 2 ounces, it’s light but feels solid in your hand. That spade-shaped inlayshield? A nod to Rough Ryder’s 30th anniversary, making this a collector’s pick as much as a user’s.
For the minimalist who needs a blade that works—whether you’re trimming fishing line, opening a stubborn package, or just like having something reliable on hand—this Doctor Knife delivers. It’s got that Rough Ryder grit: tough, sharp, and built to last, with a dark, rugged charm that stands out. Snag it for yourself or gift it to someone who’d appreciate a knife with some soul. This one’s a keeper.
