If you mention Kamp Kings around an old knife collector, they invariably smile fondly. That pattern has been around longer than most of us have been alive. With thin plastic handles and inexpensive carbon steel, it was widely known as a budget friendly user and often a kid’s first knife. The Rough Ryder Kamp King takes that old budget friendly model and gives it black jigged bone handles and stainless-steel blades. Let’s look at it.
The Rough Ryder Kamp King features mirror polished 440A stainless-steel blades and tools. It has a NEED MEASUREMENT spear point blade, a can opener, a bottle opener with screwdriver tip, and an awl. It has half stops and match strike pulls.
A nickel silver Kamp King shield accents the black jigged bone handles. It has nickel silver bolsters and a lanyard bail. It’s 3.625” closed and weighs about 4.16 ounces.
