Couldn't load pickup availability
Rugged frontier heritage meets classic natural horn craft. The NDY Artisan Series 7" Rasp Steel Cowboy Knife is a high-character fixed blade custom-engineered for trail riders, camp outfitters, and collectors of fine custom cutlery. The heavy-duty high-carbon rasp steel blade preserves its distinctive cross-hatch rasp teeth along the upper flats, sweeping fluidly down into a hand-ground, mirror-smooth cutting bevel. The ergonomic full-tang handle utilizes a masterfully segmented scale design, pairing a polished steel bolster with genuine textured stag horn scales, separated by a warm orange-and-copper marbled spacer accent band. Completed with brass structural pins, a lined brass lanyard tube, and a custom basketweave leather sheath, this compact utility knife delivers absolute grip security and authentic Western style.

💥 Why This Rasp Steel Cowboy Knife Stands Out
-
Authentic Forged Rasp Texture: The upper face of the blade retains its original cross-hatched rasp teeth, giving every single piece an unmistakable historic aesthetic. Forged from high-carbon tool steel, the ground cutting edge holds a razor-sharp bevel for detailed field work.
-
Natural Stag Horn & Bolster Fusion: The handle seamlessly integrates a smooth, ergonomic forward steel bolster with rugged, naturally textured stag horn scales that offer maximum tactile grip. A vibrant orange and copper marbled spacer band separates the materials, adding a distinguished custom accent.
-
Compact Cowboy Form & Tooling Sheath: The 7.0" overall footprint brings your hand closer to the tip for precise control. Paired with a thick, heavy-duty brown leather pancake sheath featuring a classic basketweave tooling pattern, it delivers flat, comfortable hip carry on the trail.
📖 Care & Maintenance Guide
-
Clean & Dry: Hand-wash your knife immediately after camp or utility tasks with warm water and mild dish soap using a soft sponge. Dry the blade, bolster, and stag horn surfaces thoroughly with a towel (never leave high-carbon steel submerged or place it in a dishwasher).
-
Protect the High-Carbon Steel: High-carbon rasp steel provides superior edge retention but requires simple rust prevention. Apply a light pass of food-grade mineral oil across the entire blade face—including the rasp teeth—before long-term storage to guard against moisture.
-
Nourish the Natural Stag Horn: Keep the natural stag horn scales from drying out or cracking over time by occasionally wiping the handle assembly down with a small drop of mineral oil or leather wax.
