Way out past the last water trough, where the mesquite thickens and the wire starts to lean — that’s south fence country. The kind of place you don’t ride unless you know what you're doing. And you don’t carry just any knife.

The South Fence Saddletramp runs 3 ½ inches of stainless steel farrier rasp, with a lean grind and a belly that knows how to work. 7 ½ inches overall, heat-treated to 60 HRC — it’s balanced, sharp, and built for the kind of jobs you don’t talk about over coffee.

The handle is where old meets rare.

Crosscut mammoth tooth, full of earth and mineral. A clean bone spacer breaks the line, holding it tight against a slab of ironwood burl — dark, slick, and full of grain like aged leather. The colors feel like an old saddle and the bone of the plains themselves.

It’s not flashy. It’s not loud.
It’s the one you reach for when the trail runs long and the work don’t stop.
