Cold Steel 1917 Frontier Bowie with leather sheath
Description
From its huge, imposing blade to its handsome rosewood handle, every inch of Cold Steel's Frontier Bowie screams perfection.
Almost sword-like in its cutting and thrusting performance, the Frontier Bowie features a wide, wickedly keen hand-sharpened blade with a generous clip and a huge fuller. Made from 1055 high carbon steel, it is heat-treated to a hard spring temper and beautifully blued to a lustrous finish. Its blade is both long and stiff enough to oppose even much larger weapons, while wide and sharp enough to make the most of every opportunity to cut or thrust.
The Frontier Bowie's handle is a perfect accompaniment to its battle-ready blade: Its big S-shaped guard offers excellent hand protection while the slim, flat profile stops it from twisting in your hand and keeps your edge alignment true. Its modified pistol grip also keeps the knife locked safely in your hand, even when using a palm reinforced grip for extended reach and leverage in the thrust.
To further complement this exceptional knife, Cold Steel has created a high-quality leather sheath with blued steel throat and chape. Its swiveling leather belt frog is wide enough to accommodate even a thick military belt and fully detachable to allow you to slide the knife into your belt for a more traditional carrying.
This versatile knife is suitable for historical re-enactment groups from the 1830's onwards, Cowboy Action Shooters, American Civil War re-enactors and even modern military groups.
