In their heyday, riverboat casinos existed as a sort of legal fiction. You see, gambling was illegal in many states along the Mississippi River, but anti-gambling laws didn’t apply if you were on a boat.
This led to the era of the riverboat gambler, a professional bettor who made his living by fleecing unsuspecting rubes who didn’t know when to hold ‘em, didn’t know when to fold ‘em. Sometimes these greenhorns were sore losers and wanted to get revenge. And sometimes, wielding a little steel was enough to make them think twice.
Moments like these are why the High Roller Blade was created. This beautiful, extended tang knife includes a Damascus finish on the blade and a handle featuring a pakkawood inlay and laser etching. The butt of the knife includes a lanyard hole, but the best feature of all is the assisted-opening function, allowing you to quickly open the blade with just one hand.
Up the ante of your cutlery collection today with the High Roller Blade.
