Classic Bowie Design & Stag Horn Handle

The clip-point blade and traditional Bowie styling give this knife a classic Bowie appearance. Natural stag horn provides an individual handcrafted look, while the full tang construction extends through the handle for a continuous structural profile. Natural materials may vary slightly in color, texture and grain from one knife to another.

Hunting, Camp & Outdoor Use

This fixed blade hunting knife is designed around a traditional Bowie profile and can be used for appropriate outdoor utility and camp tasks where legal. The thick 4 mm spine provides a substantial blade profile. Follow local laws and regulations for possession, carry and use.

Genuine Leather Sheath

The included genuine leather sheath provides storage and carry for the knife. Keep the sheath dry and allow it to air out if it becomes damp. Do not store a damp blade inside the sheath.

Care & Maintenance

Clean the blade after use and dry it promptly. High carbon steel can develop corrosion if exposed to moisture, so apply a light coat of suitable knife oil after cleaning. Avoid soaking and dishwashers. The powder-coated finish adds a protective surface layer, but exposed edges still require regular care.
