Guys, this knife is such an individual. It makes perfect sense that a knife designer didn’t have anything to do with its creation. The Rough Rider Cowboy Cutter was designed with the help of an SMKW customer who is a bonafide Cowboy. Rough Rider gave this knife a unique blade and a traditional appearance that looks like it’s fresh from the ranch.

Rough Rider Cowboy Cutter

The blade of the Cowboy Cutter has a standard 440 stainless blade with a lockback mechanism, but the real story here is the blade’s unique shape and purpose. The Cowboy Cutter has a hawkbill-shaped locking blade with an exaggerated tip. The Cowboy Cutter cuts bailing twine from bails of hay with minimal effort. Rough Rider includes a pocket clip and adjustable lanyard on this workingman’s knife. As you’re putting out hay, you can cinch the lanyard up to your wrist with the bead lock and just let it dangle as you work.

The Cowboy Cutter features traditional amber jigged bone handles. These genuine bone handles carry unique imperfections from knife to  knife. The bone is beautiful and flanked by a single nickel silver bolster.
