The Sonoran Belt Knife is 6 7/8 inches in overall length with a blade of 2 9/16 inches. With a height (from edge to spine) of 9/16 of an inch the pointy blade is perfect for ear marking, castration and daily use. This blade is flat ground from AEB-L stainless steel and has been cryo quenched for additional toughness and edge holding ability. This blade has a Rockwell hardness of 63 RC. A brass bolster with mosaic pins prevents the hand from slipping down onto the blade. The handle is Elk Antler with a Box Elder spacer. This knife comes with a Boot sheath in an oil tan finish. If you choose to order an additional sheath, you will receive BOTH sheaths. The one that is built already, and the additional one we will build for you.
The Slotted Sheath is an ideal sheath for riding. It is designed to be carried in the front in a cross draw fashion, whether your right handed or left handed. The sheath may also be worn behind the hip. The great advantage to this sheath, is that it can be worn 360 degrees on the belt. The Slotted sheath is worn under the belt for added security and comfort. This sheath cannot be tooled. All Horsewright sheaths are done in an Oil Tan finish.
The Horizontal Sheath was designed for comfortable, secure, all day carry. You will forget that you have this sheath/knife on your belt, until it's needed. It is designed primarily for cross draw carry, however it can also be worn on or behind the hip. This sheath cannot be tooled. All Horsewright sheaths are done in an Oil Tan finish.
