The piece

Inspired by the rugged knives carried by frontiersmen of the past, the Frontiersman Bowie combines traditional styling with dependable craftsmanship. Featuring a substantial 9½-inch blade crafted from 1084 high-carbon steel, this knife is built for demanding outdoor use.

The rich black ebony handle is accented by a polished brass guard and decorative brass mosaic pins, giving the knife a classic, timeless appearance. At 14½ inches overall, the Frontiersman Bowie offers an imposing profile while maintaining the character of a traditional working Bowie.

Completed with a custom-fitted black Kydex sheath for secure carry and protection.
