This compact all-metal rosary is rugged, functional, and portable. It has a meaningful history, as it is a replica of the service combat rosaries issued by the government to soldiers, sailors, and flying aces during WWI. If feels weighty and powerful in your hands. This is one of those rosaries that makes you want to pray!
These rosaries are quite strong, are small and portable, and very easy to carry in your pocket. This design has slightly larger Our Father beads to aid your meditative prayer. You can feel where you are on the rosary without looking at it. The chains are brass with a beautiful nickel-free silver patina and designed to be tangle-free and snag-free.
Your rosary may be customized with up to 4 optional devotional medals.
At 21" long, they are wearable but still bunch up small enough to carry in your pocket, but we do include a small round box for presentation and storage.

Thank you for shopping and God Bless.
Consistent with my prior experience with Rugged Rosaries, this pocket rosary is lovely. I treasure my Divine Mercy full rosary and wanted the One Decade size to keep in my purse and use during Adoration. It has a substantial and gratifying feel to my fingers and serves the purpose of portability and prayerfulness. Thank you for the careful craftsmanship you exhibit through your products. God bless you all!
I bought eight of these for my groomsmen. The medals and crucifixes are handsomely casted, and the skull bead in addition to the Crucifix is a great reminder of "Memento Mori, Memento Vivere"!
Delivery was as expected and the quality is awesome. Thanks to the Rugged Rosaries team!
I really love your products (WWI Battle Beads) pocket rosaries. I add a St Christopher and a St Michael devotional medals because I give them away as gifts to my veterans family & friends. Especially those that ride motorcycles and want them to feel protected. I'm very pleased and proud that they are made from my home state of Texas. Keep up the good work, y'all are awesome.
Needed a gift for oldest grandson's first communion. Since both his father and I are veterans I thought the WWI service rosary would be uniquely appropriate, even though he isn't old enough to really appreciate how special it is just yet. But I had just discovered this item a few days before the ceremony, and Amazon only promised a delivery window 5 to 10 days after the event. So I contacted Rugged Rosaries directly, explained my situation, and selected Priority Mail delivery. They said they would do their best to get it out promptly, and in fact had it in the mail 2 days later. Priority Mail actually performed as promised, and the rosary arrived a couple of days early. It's a lovely piece, and the service to get it to me on time was impeccable. Couldn't be more pleased.
I wish they were metal and a little heavier but they are nice.
This is my second pair of rugged rosaries. I bought the pocket rosary because I kept losing my finger rosaries and thought it would be much more difficult to lose this. To start with, it’s beautiful. I bought the gunmetal finish and I am very happy with the choice. Like other rugged rosary products, it is well constructed so I dint worry about it falling apart. I carry it with me always and use it several times per day. I had it blessed by my parish priest and he loved it. His exact words were “Wow, this is really nice, where did you get it?” I highly recommend this or any other product from Rugged Rosaries.
I recently bought Rosary from this website. It was for a friend I was going through some trouble in times. He loved it and has not stopped caring it with him. Will definitely buy again
Excellent product and will last a lifetime! I love it and recommend it to everyone!
