Rough Rider's Safari Trooper Knock-off. Thoughts?
on: November 29, 2015, 11:14:59 PM
I see that a reputable vendor is selling a "West German Bundeswehr Military Knife" for $6. It's a copy of the Victorinox Safari Trooper. I normally wouldn't even give it a second look, but it's made by Rough Rider. Every Rough Rider I've had was great (considering the price). Does anybody have one of these to offer an opinion on?

My guess is that it's mislisted and is not a Rough Rider but a Mil-Tec, a very baaad copy of the GAK.

I see you found the original thread. :D
