The Back Cinch

The back cinch isn't the first thing folks notice on a saddle. It's the part that keeps everything working when the country gets rough.

The Back Cinch Maverick follows the same idea.

The handle pairs Natural Bog Oak with a striking piece of Yellow Redwood Burl. The bog oak carries centuries of history in its dark grain, while the redwood burl brings warmth, figure, and flashes of gold that catch the light. A vintage Micarta spacer separates the materials, adding a subtle nod to the working tools and traditions that inspired this knife.

The blade is MagnaCut stainless steel heat treated to 61 HRC. It offers exceptional toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention without compromise. Whether it's riding on your belt during daily chores, cutting rope in the barn, or handling camp work after dark, it's built to perform long after lesser tools have been set aside.

The acid etched and stone washed finish keeps reflections down and helps hide the marks that come from honest work. It's a finish that looks better after a season of use than it does on day one.

At 7 inches overall with a 3-inch cutting edge, the Maverick sits right in that sweet spot. Big enough to be useful. Small enough to carry every day. The kind of knife that finds its way into your pocket routine because it keeps proving its worth.

The Back Cinch isn't the flashy part of the saddle. It's the part you count on when things matter. This knife was built with the same purpose.
