Genuine Stag Horn Handle

Natural stag horn gives every knife slightly different coloration, texture, and pattern. These natural variations are part of the character of a handmade knife rather than manufacturing defects.

The 3.75-inch handle is shaped to provide a comfortable and secure grip for controlled cutting.

Pancake Leather Sheath

A protective pancake-style cowhide leather sheath is included. The sheath features a secure snap closure and provides convenient storage and carry for the 7-inch knife.

Always clean and completely dry the blade before placing it inside the leather sheath.

Care & Maintenance

Keep the farrier rasp steel blade clean and dry after use. Remove moisture, dirt, and residue before storage, particularly after outdoor use.

For longer storage, apply a light protective coating suitable for the blade material and keep the knife in a dry environment.
