COW BOY BULL CUTTER
The bull cutter is the classic ranch knife of the American Southwest — a stout, curved fixed blade traditionally carried by cowboys and stockmen for everyday ranch work. Ours are hand-forged from rasp and high-carbon steel with sheep horn and wood handles, shipped sharp with a genuine leather sheath.

Bull cutters trace back to working cattlemen who needed one tough, simple knife for ranch tasks. The broad curved blade and horn handle became a Southwestern icon — many of ours are forged from repurposed farrier's rasps, keeping the rasp texture on the blade as a signature.
