Early bowie knives were large, tough and sharp! Despite the size of this bowie, the overall weight is only 1-1/2 lbs. But don't let the weight fool you; we cut down a 4" sapling in no time and the blade would still shave. Blade has a needle point. The hardwood grip is 5-1/4" and the brass guard is 4-3/4". Brass strip on spine is an intentional device designed to catch the edge of an attacker's blade during a parry. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts®.
  • Blade: 13" long, 2-3/8" wide, 3/16" thick

Can be personalized with 3 Initials (select below left).

This is nothing like the "Primitive Knife" that is sold on Amazon and Ebay. That Primitive is of poor quality with a sheath that is worse. No comparison. This version of the "Western Bowie" has the best feel out of all the others. It is a huge knife but feels light and handles well. The swedge can be sharpened for the back cut, it does not need to be razor sharp like the main edge as it is the clip point that produces the main damage. This is a great knife if you are looking for an "Iron Mistress" type design. It handles amazingly well for a knife of this size.

I purchased this knife when it was first offered years ago. While beautiful,this India made knife arrived dull and impossible to sharpen after numerous attemps.Obviously, the glowing testimonial given in the product description was a bit overstated.I can understand why Atlanta Cutlery now offers sharpening for an addtional fee. However, one should expect a knife to arrive fresh out of the box with some kind of an edge.

Good looking knife. Better looking than any of the knives invented by Rezin Bowie for his psychopathic brother James. It should make a good utility camp knife and small machette.

This is classic fighting Bowie with brass spine design for parry incoming opponent blade and it has long clip that can be shapen for the back cut.This bowie has nice balance and very quick and durable ,mine is almost 10 years old and it still going strong .
