Redbeard & I discussed such a product several times before he had these made exclusively for Ragweed Forge. Before it, I used more general-purpose cases variously called "tool" & "utensil" rolls made of waxed canvas or combo WC & suede. This purpose-built knife roll is better because: 1. It's all leather, brown rugged water buffalo no less on exterior, black cow suede pockets inside. 2. They're attached together like hinges of hell w/ heavy nylon stitching & good-looking copper rivets. 3. While others fasten roll closed w/ fabric straps &/or leather strips you tie together, this 1 has a 2-rivet-attached proper metal belt-buckle closure & 28-in-long buffalo strap w/ 10 holes for adjustability. Simply punch more if not tight enough partially filled. 4. Unlike competitors', RF's feature pleated knife pockets--3 X-wide + 1 M-wide + 2 somewhat narrower = 6--that will fit much larger knife + sheaths, like my Roselli Hunter/Carpenter combo in double sheath & massive Peltonen M07 Ranger in its bulky "holster." 6. Not mentioned in description, but at far left when open, there's a 7th unpleated flat slot that will accept a relatively thin knife-sheath like my Helle Arv or some shroomers. 7. No other has leather patch emblazoned "Ragweed Forge!" Yes, $149.99 will buy you another puukko or 2, but how well will they endure w/out protection in a primo leather roll like Redbeard's?
