Bowie Knives
Probably one of the most memorable movie quotes of all time came about when “Crocodile” Dundee scoffed at a mugger's switchblade saying, "That's not a knife." After pulling out his Bowie knife, Mick exclaimed, "THAT'S a knife!" Originally designed by Col. James Bowie, a Bowie knife describes any large sheath knife. While it may not be everyone's self-defense weapon of choice, a Bowie knife is an excellent hunting knife. In addition, their handsome appearance makes them favorites for collectors.

The knife had slight damage to the tip, it was supposed to be replaced when new inventory arrived
Very nice size, the weight ration between blade and handle is good. Overall a very good durable knife.
The product arrived with the tip of the blade bent... A better packaging would have definitely prevented this from happening as I suspect this happened during shipping....
good quality,good heft
Christmas gift for our grandson. Had his name engraved on it. He loved it and has enjoyed using it. Service was great. Product was great.
This Case Bowie is the pride of my cutlery collection. It's craftsmanship is perfection. I own many Case xx knives some made as far back as WWII and this Bowie is my favorite. The price ic well worth the quality that is made into this knife. The heavy thick cut leather sheath is also well worth talking about. This is a true piece of art that no one will regret purchasing! Enjoy, Joe
This is a beautiful and well crafted knife. I have received many fine comments on the weight, balance and appearance. It is an excellent addition to my collection.
The knife I ordered came fast and it's awesome!
