The Hudson's Bay Roach is the largest and heaviest of the Trade knives.  It has a heavier, thicker blade well-suited for heavier camp and wilderness tasks such as chopping and shelter building, and would also do well as a butcher knife for larger game.  The ample belly on the blade (hence the name) also makes it ideal for skinning larger game.

Below are the detailed measurements of this knife. One important note: for best comfort and grip, the length of your middle finger should be similar to the circumference of the handle.

Fantastic knife!

I love this knife! Not only does it fit period dress, but it is very useful in the field. I like this knife so much that I bought its little brother the patch knife. Awesome craftsmanship and the blade holds a good edge. 10/10!!

Hudson Bay Roach Belly

Excellent quality knife. Very sharp, needing no touch-up whatsoever. Purchasing through Knives of the North was a very good experience. Lowest prices out there, very fast shipping and the Knives come with a sheath. Have bought 5 Knives from them already and will be getting more in the future.
