KnifeNews: New RoseCraft Obed Creek Bow Trapper is an Armstrong Original

RoseCraft Blades is in a Traditional Mood, it seems. Hot on the heels of the Cane Creek Jack’s release earlier this month, the company is now readying the Obed Creek Bow Trapper for release, an original pattern that, like the Cane Creek, comes from the mind of Andy Armstrong.

The Cane Creek Jack was a nod to an old pattern from long-shuttered Sheffield, England knife shop Joseph Allen & Sons. By contrast, the Obed Creek is an original pattern, created and refined by Armstrong himself, who has been behind many of the traditional knife releases in RoseCraft’s growing corral.

I dig it.  It is hard to come up with a “new” traditional pattern, but I can’t think of something exactly like this. Love the Skull shield.
