Rough Rider Bow Trapper Black Canvas Micarta Lockback Knife

Description

The Rough Rider Bow Trapper in Black Canvas Micarta is a single-blade lockback, a satin-finished 440 stainless skinner blade set in a black canvas Micarta handle with stainless bolsters and an inlay shield.

The skinner blade’s wide, curved belly is purpose-built for field dressing and hide work a standard blade handles less efficiently, well suited to hunters and outdoorsmen. Black canvas Micarta, a resin-impregnated fabric laminate, is one of the more durable handle materials available, resisting cracking and wear far better than bone or basic plastic. Stainless bolsters resist corrosion at the pivot points even better than the more common nickel silver, and an inlay shield adds collector-grade detailing.

A lockback secures the blade open with a spine-mounted release, long considered one of the most trusted traditional locking mechanisms because of how much force it takes to fail. Rough Rider built this piece for buyers who want hard-use materials paired with hunting-capable geometry. It’s a fitting choice for hunters who want durable, modern materials on a proven lockback pattern. Bow trapper patterns like this one have remained a favorite among buyers who want a modern hunting-ready lockback. The skinner blade shape has remained a hunter’s favorite for exactly the field dressing work it excels at.
