A hose coupler generally includes a hose adapter including opposing ends, an interior surface forming a fluid passage between the opposed ends, and an exterior surface including a series of barbs for engaging an interior surface of a hose that is configured to be fluidly connected to the hose adapter. A ferrule is connected to the hose adapter and is positioned to at least partially surround the exterior surface of the hose adapter. The ferrule has an interior surface facing the exterior surface of the hose adapter. The interior surface defines at least one cutting rib having a sharp corner or edge for piercing an outer layer of the hose and a plurality of compression ribs each defining a rounded surface for compressing the hose against the barbs.
