We are honored to be an officially licensed supplier for Knights of Columbus rosaries. These are WWI Battle Bead versions handmade daily in the Rugged Rosaries workshop. 

The WWI Battle Beads are a historical design inspired by the pull-chain combat rosaries handed out to soldiers, sailors, and flying aces during WWI. Our thoughtful reproduction of the original vintage rosaries is a close duplication with the addition of the emblem of the Knights of Columbus. You can carry it proudly as your Spiritual Weapon!

These rosaries are quite strong, do not tangle, are small and portable, and very easy to carry in your pocket. The Rugged Rosaries' WWI 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. This chain is non-rust, non-corrosive, and non-magnetic. 

Please see the reviews below for our WWI Battle Beads... You will LOVE this rosary.

A portion of all Knights of Columbus sales goes directly to the Knights of Columbus Warriors to Lourdes program. We also donate these rosaries for that same program every year.

Rugged Rosaries Combat Rosary

I added this rosary to ever growing collection of Rugged Rosaries. I make sure to have them available everywhere I go. They are beautifully made, nearly indestructible and make wonderful gifts. I can’t say enough how impressed I am by these beautiful rosaries. It won’t be my last.

Great gift.

I make it habit of buying a Special Rosary for Priest that join the Knights of Columbus at our Council, are for those Priest are in awe of it's beauty. I've been blessed to purchase Rosaries with the Mircaleous Medal for my Carmalite Priests (5 or 6). I can pray that when they Pray the Most Holy Rosary, somewhere they will Remember me in their Prayers as a Brother and one Jesus's Flock.

I love it

The 1 decade version is awesome. The hail mary beads are bigger and feel more natural in the hand compared to the 5 decade version. Good weight too.

Great Rosary

I purchased this Rosary as a Christmas gift for my father. I think he's going to enjoy it very much. His dad served in the Army during WW I and I wonder if he'd received a Rosary like this?
