Texas Bowie

Specifications

"Really large but not ponderous, the clip doesn't have a swage or a sharpened false edge and the bone handle is round, oval handle would be better, but overall a very good bowie. The edge came razor sharp. For me this was a great project improvement knife as I ground a false edge onto the clip point and I cut a pattern of cross hatching on the top 1/3 of the round handle with a file triangular file and this gives a more positive grip and also helps in knowing the edge alignment even with eyes closed. After my DIY upgrade I would for myself give it a 6, if 6 was available, out of the box it's still a very nice Bowie and the bone handle looks really nice. Using a strong magnet I can tell that the tang is full length of the handle. the steel pommel/butt cap helps in balancing the knife and might be good as a skull crusher." - Jean (5/5)
