Product Description: Ruffian J1924 AR-RPM9 Satin Black Product Features: The Ruffian is our first CJRB model designed in collaboration with Dirk Pinkerton. This compact Wharncliffe style knife hits the perfect spot between three worlds, while the Ruffian may be small in size it cuts like a much bigger knife thanks to the wide blade that comes down to a razor-thin edge. All together the Ruffian has something for every situation and will make itself right at home in your pocket. It's a great lightweight EDC Knife with a 3” blade, slim G10 scales with inset liners, and a fidget-friendly thumb hole. It's also an excellent backup tactical option in a pinch, the low profile and aggressive Wharncliffe blade make for easy concealment and effective use in emergency situations. It's a perfect daily work knife, Our AR-RPM9 steel is tough enough to handle big tasks.

Satin AR-RPM9 Powder Steel: The Ruffian’s blade is constructed from our proprietary AR-RPM9 steel that perfectly blends edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. This is the ideal option for an every day carry knife that will stay strong through all of your adventures.

Cutting Profile: The Ruffian’s wide Wharncliffe style blade is designed to maximize cutting power while minimizing overall edge length, meaning that even short cuts bite deep and separate materials with ease, making the 3” blade of this knife effectively do the work of much larger knives. The fine tip is ideal for piercing cuts and tipwork, and the slight angle to the blade adds just a little bit more versatility when working on a flat surface, helping to keep your fingers elevated away from the cutting surface. Additionally, the shape of the blade allows for very easy sharpening and maintenance.

Blade: The Ruffian features a razor-thin 0.11” thick blade stock which allows this knife to glide effortlessly through cuts with incredible accuracy. Coupled with the slim handles and aggressive milling the thin stock also helps to significantly cut down the overall weight of the knife.

G10 Handle: For people who want their knives to perform under any condition, G10 is an excellent handle material option. G10 is temperature resistant, water resistant, non-reactive, non-conductive, and exceptionally tough under pressure.

Designer: Dirk Pinkerton is an established knife maker who has been designing for a wide array of knife companies for over a decade. His designs are distinguished by crisp lines, exceptional ergonomics, and blades that are practical and purpose driven. We’ve been very happy to work with Dirk over the last several years and the Ruffian is his first model in our CJRB line of knives, which we believe is a perfect fit, combining Dirk’s crisp, practical design language and CJRB quality to create an incredible value-oriented knife that performs flawlessly.

Accessories: Comfortable carry is a huge part of the Ruffian’s design, this knife features a four-position deep-carry pocket clip that disappears in any pants pocket and firmly affixes the knife in place. We’ve also included a discreet lanyard pin for those who prefer to use lanyards. The free-spinning pin keeps the lanyard freely accessible without disrupting the flow of the scales.
