Rough Ryder Knives takes its name from the group of men who volunteered to follow Teddy Roosevelt. In 1898, 23,000 men volunteered to ride with Teddy Roosevelt, but he only chose 2,000. The men came from all corners of the country. They were Princeton football players, full-blooded Pawnee Indians, expert trail cowboys, aristocratic Englishmen, polo players and even Rhodes Scholars. They came from all states and walks of life. These men became one of the finest fighting forces in history. They became his Rough Riders.
