Measuring \u003cstrong\u003e8 inches overall\u003c\/strong\u003e, this fixed-blade cowboy knife features a \u003cstrong\u003e4-inch D2 steel blade\u003c\/strong\u003e, an engraved metal handle, a circular ring-tail grip, and a decorative leather sheath designed for cross-draw belt carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe broad, rectangular blade follows the recognizable bull cutter style traditionally associated with ranch and livestock work. Its straight cutting edge provides a controlled working surface, while the compact 4-inch blade keeps the knife manageable for general ranch, workshop, and outdoor utility tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEngraved D2 Steel Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made from \u003cstrong\u003eD2 steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and features an engraved, stone-like pattern that continues across the handle. Polished sections contrast with the lighter textured areas, giving the knife a distinctive appearance without relying on additional handle scales. Pattern placement may vary slightly between individual pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA shaped finger recess clearly separates the blade from the handle and defines the gripping area. The approximately 4-inch handle has a curved profile that flows into the circular ring tail, creating a bold Western design associated with traditional bull cutter knives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFunctional Ring-Tail Handle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe large circular opening at the end of the handle is the knife’s most recognizable feature. It provides a distinctive ring-tail appearance and offers an additional point for handling or hanging the knife when it is not being used. Decorative engraved details continue around the ring, creating a consistent finish across the entire knife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCross-Draw Leather Sheath\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knife comes with a brown leather pancake-style sheath featuring basket-weave tooling, scalloped borders, contrasting stitching, and elongated belt openings. These openings allow the sheath to be positioned horizontally or at an angle on a suitable belt for cross-draw carry.
