Natural antler covers the section closest to the butt. A turquoise band picks up just below, marked off by thin red liners. A light gray bolster connects that handle to the blade.

That profile handles everyday tasks like skinning and rope work with ease. Southwestern artisans have long set turquoise into tools and jewelry alike.

Antler earned its place as a handle material for its strength and grip. Worn rasps found new purpose in blade making once smiths noticed their steel. Blades shaped for ranch and trail work became known simply as cowboy knives. This build gathers all of that into a single, working piece.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTurquoise Rasp Cowboy Knife Performance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEveryday chores like skinning and rope work suit this blade well.
