The BC-403: A Working Cowboy Knife, Through and Through

This is the Stag Steel BC-403, a 10" fixed blade forged from D2 tool steel in the Black Shark style, with a raw scale finish left on the flats. Fitted to a marbled resin handle that ends in a full finger ring at the pommel, it is built for the ranch hand who needs a knife that holds an edge from sunup to sundown. At 10" overall with a 5" blade, it carries the presence of a real fixed blade, the kind you reach for at branding, in the field, or any time the work calls for a blade that will not quit.

D2: The Steel That Earned Its Reputation

D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel prized by blade smiths and working ranchers for one reason: it holds a wicked edge and keeps it through hard, repeated use. It is semi-stainless, so it resists rust far better than plain carbon steel while still taking a razor-sharp edge. On the ranch, that means you sharpen it once and it stays sharp through rope, twine, hide, feed sacks, and whatever else the day throws at it. The forged scale finish keeps that raw, worked-metal character instead of a polished mirror, because this knife is meant to be used, not admired behind glass.

What Sets the BC-403 Apart

  • Forged D2 tool steel with raw scale finish
  • Marbled resin handle, waterproof and one of a kind
  • Full-tang build with finger-ring pommel
  • Handmade pancake leather sheath included
🗡️

D2 Tool Steel Blade

A high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel built for edge retention and toughness. The 5" blade gives you enough length for real ranch work, cutting rope, twine, hide, and feed sacks, without turning into a fighting knife. The scale finish preserves the forged, worked-metal character.

🌀

Marbled Resin Handle

Every handle is poured by hand, so no two slabs come out with the same swirl of color and grain. The resin composite is waterproof and impact-tough. It will not warp, crack, swell, or soak up ranch grime, and the marbling means your BC-403 is genuinely yours.

💍

Finger-Ring Pommel

The classic ringtail cowboy design. Hook your finger through it and the knife locks into your palm. When your hands are wet, gloved, or cold and you are pulling a cut one-handed, that ring keeps the blade exactly where it belongs, in your grip, not on the ground.

🧰

Sheath Included

Every BC-403 ships with a handmade pancake leather sheath. No extra purchase, no waiting. Strap it on your belt and go. The sheath is built to the same standard as the knife, because a working blade deserves a carry that holds up.

Care Guide, Keeping Your D2 Blade Right| Read our brief knife guide

1Wipe it dry after every use+
D2 is semi-stainless, not stainless. Moisture left on the blade is the main cause of surface spotting. A quick wipe with a dry cloth after use is all it takes to keep the steel clean.
2Light oil now and then+
A thin coat of mineral oil or any food-safe blade oil after cleaning keeps the steel protected between jobs. It takes thirty seconds and adds years to the blade.
3Clean by hand, never the dishwasher+
Heat and harsh detergent are hard on both the edge and the resin handle. A quick hand wash with mild soap and warm water is all the BC-403 ever needs.
4Store dry, not sheathed long-term+
Leather holds moisture. For long storage, keep the knife out of the sheath in a dry spot. The sheath is built for carry, not for months of closed storage.
5Touch up the edge, do not grind it+
D2 sharpens best with a fine stone or ceramic rod. A few passes restore the edge without removing much steel. You should not need to grind it; D2 holds its edge through hard use and usually only needs a quick touch-up.
6Surface spot? Do not panic+
Light patina or a surface spot wipes off with a little oil and a non-scratch pad. It is cosmetic, not damage. D2 develops character over time, and a working knife is supposed to show its miles.
