Ruger Knives

[RoninPA]

Has anyone ever done any research or written anything about Ruger knives. I have some that I'd like to get more info on.

They are fully automatic. The info on the boxes is what you see other than on the one end one says (in pencil) "1st" and the other "2nd"

RUGER ALL-WEATHER KNIVES

I should have noted that the brochures are as hard to find as the knives! Forum member Rumrunner was kind enough to give me mine.

I've got one in the safe at home and just grabbed another off Ebay. These were ordered from Paragon and I believe made in Japan. They used either ATS-34 or 440C steel with a zytel handle I believe. I've seen them for sale before at $400 for an auto.

I didn't know they made any full auto knives. Those are nice looking.

Are they old? Or a better question, do you know how old they are?

Kevin,
They are nice looking and operate very smoothly. I'm still looking for more info about them, Terry W. probably has the most info and even he said that's not much. Maybe I'll call Ruger tomorrow to see if they might be able to shed some light or direct me to someone/somewhere else. (I was going to say they might be able to tell me where to go - and then realized what I wrote )
