For my wife.
I received a very similar rugged rosary as a gift a few years ago. I love it so much I carry with me everywhere I go without fail. It brings me so much comfort.
I wife and I agreed to only give each other one small gift to each other this Christmas. I Purchased one for her and she loves it. I can’t wait to buy some for my children and another one for myself. They are truly awesome.

Well Received
It was sent as a gift, I wish it had come with a better description of symbols on crucifix enclosed.

Great set of Rosaries
This is actually my 2nd purchase I thought I lost my original set. I ordered my second set and soon afterward found my first set.
Both are well made. Excellent service and fast delivery. I would highly recommend rugged rosaries

Irish Penal Pocket Rosary and Black Zip Pouch
I ordered 2 of the Irish Penal Rosaries and Pouches for my sons. They are very well made and very sturdy. The pouches are perfect size for the penal rosaries!
Mr. Crow said:
Great
Very timely, great quality, no qualms.
Elizabeth Sheridan said:
Excellent as usual!
Once again I am so pleased with the high quality of my rosary from this wonderful company! This is my second purchase and it will surely not be the last. My Irish penal rosary is sturdy with a lovely green paracord that will surely last for years to come. This rosary is big, so it’s easy to handle, even for those with small hands like me. I also love the pouches these rosaries come with, as they are sturdy as well. Keep up the outstanding work!
Patrick Cunningham said:
You Guys Are Great
Both of my Rugged Rosary’s have been a humble balance of rugged and gorgeous. Not to mention the extremely quick delivery time. Thank you for your work, God bless.
Sean Kelly said:
Excellent craftsmanship
This is exactly what I was looking for. I have been carrying a nylon cord chaplet for years now, but needed something just a little tougher. Strong. Durable. Excellent craftsmanship. Keep doing what you do! Thank you!
Scott B said:
Beautiful
Sturdy and beautiful. I bought two for my kids, who are young and rambunctious enough to destroy more delicately-constructed rosaries, and have no such worries with these. They love them. Thank you!

Irish Penal Rosary
Quick delivery. I bought one for myself and one for my son, who is currently deployed overseas. I replaced the ring with one a size larger in order to fit over my fingers more comfortably. Beautiful product. Thank you!
Jeffrey Davis said:
Fantastic!
I love this rosary. High quality. I love the penal rosary. feels great in my hands and fits super well in my hands. Its bigger then what I expected however that isn't a hang up for me. I can't say enough about the quality. 10/10 I will definitely be ordering more from these guys. Shipping was fast and they even included some freebies, which is the sign of a caring company if you ask me. Keep up the good work. So happy.

Great Rosary
This is a great rosary to use when saying one’s rosary in the car. I once had a full sized rosary get stuck in the steering wheel..(I did get it untangled before there was an accident.) It helps me keep focused to move the ring on the rosary from finger to finger. This is my second Irish Penal rosary. I believe I lost my first one on a long walk. I wonder if anyone has thought of putting the Our Father bead on the end of the Rosary closest to the ring. In the car, it is easier to manipulate the rosary that way. I use the large knot for the Our Father because of this. Try it out! Thanks also for customizing the color! God Bless!

My husband likes it and I bought it for him because the cross had interesting symbolism on it.
Robert Hartney said:
Irish Penal Pocket Rosary
I bought 2. One myself and one for my nephew who is about to enter the church.
I like the compactness and the design. I like the cross design.
I like the history behind it and what it can teach us especially for someone like my nephew to learn.
Great job with the delivery. I plan to buy more over time.
Thanks!
Paul Spence said:
Irish Penal Roasry
Thanks so much for making a high quality, durable Rosary. Exceeds expectations...but like other reviewers, you may want to add an option for a larger finger ring, minor improvement on a quality Rosary.
Dylan S. said:
EDC rosary
I wanted a small rosary that I could carry with me every day in my back pocket, and something strong enough to put up with the daily abuse. In this Irish penal rosary, Rugged Rosaries has made something that suits the purpose perfectly. I also love the history and symbolism of this particular crucifix. It is both a devotional aid and a conversation starter. Highly recommended!

Saving Beads for a Gaelic Savvy soul
Communication with RR is great. Product delivered as fast as could be expected. Product materials appear to be as stated in promotional information. The only issue is the ring that is designed to go onto your fingers was not sheared off properly or filed down before attaching to the rosary. This over time as it travels through the loop caught on the cord material as well as on your fingers. This was remedied by replacing with a larger ring as I needed a little more wiggle room so to speak. This small issue prevents a 5 star but certainly does not detract from a Great Company, Great Mission Statement and I will certainly recommend to all who observe my beads.
Thank you for your feedback. When we reorder the ring part, we will see if we can find a better quality and maybe just a slightly larger one as well.
Andrew said:
Beautiful!
Beautiful, custom rosary arrived on time to be a Christmas gift, even though we waited until the last minute to order. I didn’t know if they’d be able to accommodate our request for customization in time, but they did, and it’s beautiful! Plus, our son was able to get his new rosary blessed by His Eminence, Cardinal Harvey, who celebrated a wedding we attended the weekend after Christmas!
Thank you for the great work you do!
Joe said:
Perfect
Exactly what I was looking for in a pocket rosary! Outstanding quality. I also appreciate the wonderful packaging. Many thanks.

Second Purchase, Same Item
I bought a pocket rosary several months ago. My 11 year old son liked it so much he asked for an identical product from Rugged Rosary. I was very happy to buy it for him and to make the purchase from such a great company! Highly recommend the product and the customer service.
Dan Davis said:
Great items
I have ordered a few items from here, and each has been of great quality and as described. Thank you for the excellent experience.
Ryan Daley said:
Amazing!
Thanks for such an amazing product. I asked for a custom Irish Penal Rosary and ya'll delivered!! I feel better having this on me at all times. I have recommended Rugged Rosaries to many friends.
Kris Kelley said:
Irish Penal Rosary
This was my second purchase from Rugged Rosaries and I have been once again delighted with the rapid, helpful customer service and superb craftsmanship. I asked for them to customize it with a different crucifix and it was still ready to ship almost immediately . Thank you and God bless you and all your work!
Robert Stone said:
Irish Penal Rosary
Thank you for the rosary. I have been looking for a simple, sturdy rosary that I could carry in my pocket with me at all times. I asked for it to be customized in a couple of different ways and these instructions were followed to a T. I have to say that all of my expectations were met and exceeded. Pricing is very reasonable, ordering was easy, shipping was fast, knots are and the rosary is built to last. Not to mention it is beautiful in its simplicity and function! Thank you and GOD Bless you!

James Dunne said:
Works for me
I have used an Irish penal rosary for years and when I lost my 40 year old Connemara marble one I searched the internet for a replacement. There were several sources for what appeared to be similar rosaries. I ordered one but was greatly disappointed in the quality. As they say, they don't make them the way they used to. Then I found your site and ordered your model of the penal rosary. The construction is outstanding and I am gradually getting used to the feel of it as I say my rosary - it obviously feels different to my old marble beads. I also sense that the one inch ring is smaller than my old one. So, I have gone to Amazon (where else?) and ordered a small supply of 1 1/4 inch rings. Hopefully this will resolve my minor issue and I will go on to enjoy your wonderfully designed rosary for years to come.
James Burke said:
Ruggedly Beautiful
This is the third set of your rosaries I've purchased, and the second penal rosary. I carry it with me daily and use during my dog walks. It fits my hand well and is easy to use, while still allowing me to control the dogs as we walk. They are also far more durable than other rosaries I own and do not come apart from being stuffed into pockets. I will continue to purchase your products as need arises. Your customer service is outstanding.

Rugged and Beautiful
This the fourth rosary I have purchased and they were all awesome! They look amazing and stand up to everyday use quite well. I have also given two away as gifts and the recipients were very happy with them. I plan on purchasing more for my self and as gifts as these rosaries are the best I have ever came across.
Damian Torres-Botello said:
Rugged yet reverent
The pocket rosary is my second rosary from this organization! I love the work they do. The beads fit my had and yet this pocket rosary can rest in my pocket. I keep my hands in my pocket most of the day and so I tend to fiddle with the beads. This is how I break rosaries, but not anymore. Additionally, the cross on this rosary is beautiful and the history of this type of rosary and the way it is prayed is quite moving. Thank you for the work you do at crafting these weapons of prayer! It's my sword and shield. Amen!

Meaningful Sacramental
This Rosary is rugged, and the quality is very good. I bought a second for my Navy son to take on aircraft carrier deployment. I am Irish- American and the Penal Rosary is special.

He carries a rosary ring, but wanted the penal rosary when he saw mine.

Penal Rosary Review
Very satisfied. When I got it the beads seemed too close together, but the nylon cords stretches so it was easy to stretch it a little and give the beads room to "travel". I find the penal rosary the best for driving and traveling. I have two and they are both good. This one is excellent, and I would recommend it to anyone. And it would be a great present to active duty and retired service members.

I purchased this for my sons car. We have several of your products, and love them. I have the car rosary. The items are beautifully done, well made and sturdy. Just beautiful!
Charlie R. said:
Impressed
I requested some customization (different beads) and asked for a response regarding what the additional cost would be. I was concerned that I never heard back for about 4 days until I received the "your order has shipped" email. My rosary arrived, as ordered within a week with not additional charge. A very nice product, very good service and a very good price.
Ralph Melton said:
A truly Rugged Rosary!
The imagery on the crucifix is what drew me to this particular rosary. I received my rosary within four days (shipped cross country). The rosary is just as pictured. It is very well made and is truly a Rugged Rosary! I love the imagery from the crucifixion story included on the crucifix. I have a sense of peace while I'm carrying it with me - peace of mind that the rosary is not likely to break and the peace that comes from prayer. Thanks for a great product and speedy delivery. May God bless the Rugged Rosary team!
Barry Dickson said:
surely a rugged pocket rosary !
The pocket rosary was better than I had hoped for. From the knots, the beads, the paracord, to the crucifix itself, it is all quality and perfection. Many thank to the people at Rugged Rosaries for keeping us well armed.

great gift
I purchased two as gifts for my 20 year old son and 19 year old Godson. They both loved it's ruggedness and it's convenient size. They thought it was very "cool". As for me, I am happy that it may remind them to pray more often.
Gary Kirby said:
Irish penal pocket rosary
This was exactly what I wanted. The quality is perfect. Many of my other rosaries, the very expensive ones included, seem to fall apart or come unlinked on occasion. This is extremely strong and very well made. I will also stand behind anything that helps our troops overseas or at home. I could not have asked for a more perfect daily rosary.
Michael Novy said:

I love the size, feel, and quality of this rosary. The unique beauty and symbolism of Penal Cross attracted me to this product, and I was not disappointed. Outstanding!
