Custom Forged Bowie Knife

This custom made Damascus steel bowie knife measures 13.5 inches overall with an 8 inch blade forged from 1095 and 15N20 high and low carbon steel. The handle spans 5.5 inches and features polished bull horn scales with engraved brass spacers. It arrives new with a thick red cowhide leather sheath. Hardened to 58-60 HRC, the blade is built to hold a sharp edge for extended use.

Upgrading From Factory Blades

This knife replaces mass produced stainless options that dull quickly and lack the pattern welded character of true Damascus steel. The jump is worth it for hunters and outdoor users who want a hand forged tool with high carbon edge retention and a unique handle material. It is not for buyers who want a low maintenance folder or a blade that can be ignored after wet use.

Build Ready Sheath And Care

The included leather sheath protects the edge during carry but must not be used for long term storage because leather absorbs moisture that causes rust on high carbon steel. Clean the blade after each use and apply a light coat of oil or wax before putting it away. The knife is sold only to responsible buyers aged 18 and over.

Questions about this item

What is the overall length and handle length of this Damascus bowie knife?

The knife measures 13.5 inches overall with a 5.5 inch handle crafted from polished bull horn and engraved brass spacers.

How should I install or prepare the knife for first use given its high carbon Damascus blade?

Clean the 1095 and 15N20 steel blade thoroughly, apply a light coat of oil or wax, and never store it long-term in the leather sheath to prevent moisture-related rust.

What ongoing maintenance does the 58-60 HRC Damascus blade require to stay rust-free?

After each use, clean and dry the blade, apply cooking oil or wax, and avoid prolonged storage in the supplied cowhide sheath which can trap moisture.
