The famous James Bowie played an integral part in the Texas Revolution in the nineteenth century. His fame started from his fight with Sheriff Norris Wright. Two opposing groups met on a sandbar in Mississippi to witness a duel. A riot broke out among the two groups. Bowie was shot in the hip, smashed in the head by a pistol and then impaled by Wright's sword cane. As Wright tried to remove the sword, Bowie pulled him down and impaled him with his knife; killing Wright on the spot. Bowie was then shot again and stabbed in the back. After surviving all of this Bowie became feared and respected throughout the country for his knife fighting abilities.

There have been various versions of the famous Bowie Knife over the past 200 years. We have made slight modifications to the common design to feature a raised "DAAB" Dual Angle Approach Blade; this razor sharp blade modification provides you maximum edge control while carving. It has a burly high-tech Linen Micarta handle with a brass bolster to give it a more solid hand. This version of the Bowie makes for an even better hunting knife with the same famous history of James Bowie.

I received this knife as as a gift and the blade is beautiful. The weight is on target and the handle finishes the presentation as a solid and well made piece of art!

Amazing deal.

I picked this up for Black Friday and man was it a steel. You can fell the quality right away. I just got it so I haven’t put it to use yet but by the look and feel, I scored!!!

Updated review

The knife is absolutely worth the price that I got it at during the Black Friday sale. If I had paid full price though, I'm not too sure. The knife itself is well made and has a very solid "feel" overall. I'm confident it will hold up over time as long as it's maintained. However, I had to really work the edge quite a bit straight out of the box, failed the paper test miserably. The scales are nice and the size is great for an EDC knife. The sheath on the other hand is nothing to write home about. Would have liked to have received the brown one pictured, ended up getting a black one instead. Black leather just looks cheap in my opinion. The glueing on the belt loop is coming apart as well, hopefully the stitching doesn't pop. In the end, I'd buy it again though at the same sale price.

Hello Norman,
I tracked the package and USPS says it is still in transit. I am guessing it may be because it is being shipped to Hawaii that it is taking a little longer to arrive.

Why Forseti Steel?

Each Knife is Unique

All of our knives are made by hand and crafted one at a time. That is why no two knives are the same. The knife you receive will be similar to what you see on our site, but will be unique based on the natural materials used and individual craftsman that built the knife. 

Testimonials

Beautiful, true Damascus steel knives. They set the table with elegance and class.

Jon Groves

Love this knife! Compact design, nice grip, feels comfortable in your hand--very sharp blade! As a side for the ladies--it fits in the smallest of bags. You won't be disappointed if you buy it!
