Rasp File Steel Blade Performance

The 4" blade is forged from rasp file steel, a material valued by knife makers for its toughness, edge retention, and aggressive cutting ability.

The ergonomic shape allows the Cowboy Knife to sit securely in the hand, providing better control for cutting, slicing, and general ranch tasks.
