For those of you following the Walking Dead, you know some crazy things have been happening this season. Not the least of which, the injury dealt to Carl. And while we certainly feel awful for the kid, we can’t help but be a little jealous of his fantastic taste in knives. Someone over at Coldsteel... Read More

Boker has been around since the 17th century, so it’s only fitting that the company would make some beautiful, traditional Bowie-style blades. There are a few Boker Bowies that I like in particular—take a look: Boker Luckett Bowie We looked at the Boker Plus Collection 2014 Bowie from Boker, but this is the 2012 piece.... Read More

It’s not often that I’m able to find a Bowie in the movies that’s also a recognizable brand, but the impossible has happened! I found these images of a SOG Bowie in Terminator 2: Judgment Day from SOG’s website: It looks very similar to this Bowie, to me: This Bowie is patterned after the Bowie... Read More

Gavko knives fit into this category; take a look at a couple of new Bowies Michal Gavak made: Gavko has a presence on YouTube, and he makes some really neat, handmade knives. His... Read More

We haven’t featured Fred Perrin knives on the blog before, but they are pretty awesome so I figured it was about time to write up a post on them. Perrin makes some pretty sweet Bowie blades, and I really like them because his knives typically have a full tang. A full tang is a huge... Read More

Posted by Kaylene on October 3, 2013October 26, 2022, in Knife Knowledge

Tags: Bowie Knives, Buck Knives
