Hand Forged Copper Damascus Bowie Knife 12" – Resin & Stone Handle with Leather Sheath

Exceptional craftsmanship, exceptional materials. This hand-forged 12-inch copper Damascus bowie knife is created through a detailed and artistic forging process — the blade is forged from a blend of carbon steel and copper, producing a copper Damascus pattern known for its strength, visual depth, and long-lasting performance. The 7-inch fixed blade is heat-treated for reliable cutting and durability, and paired with a 5-inch handle made from epoxy resin and stone that offers a comfortable grip and a unique, elegant appearance.

Every knife comes with a handmade, hand-stitched leather sheath designed for secure storage and easy carry. This is a knife that performs at the highest level and looks extraordinary doing it.

The Copper Damascus Blade

The copper Damascus blade is forged from carbon steel and copper layers that flow and fold during forging, producing a warm, golden-toned pattern that is entirely distinct from traditional iron-based Damascus. The 7-inch blade is heat-treated for reliable cutting performance and durability — a blade that is as capable as it is beautiful. The full tang construction runs the complete length of the handle, ensuring maximum strength at the blade-handle junction.

Epoxy Resin & Stone Handle

The combination of epoxy resin and stone creates a handle that is both visually striking and practically superior. The resin provides a smooth, moisture-resistant grip; the stone adds natural texture, color, and weight that improves the knife's balance in hand. Together they create a handle that is unique to every knife — the stone pattern and resin color will look slightly different on every piece.

The Handmade Leather Sheath

The leather sheath is handmade and hand-stitched — not machine-sewn — using the same saddle-stitch technique that has been used by leather craftsmen for centuries. Hand-stitching is stronger than machine stitching because each stitch is independent. The sheath is fitted to the knife and provides secure retention and protection for the blade during carry and storage.
