Drop Forged Bowie

Drop Forged Bowie Knife with Faux Stag Slabs
Cold Steel® Monolithic Axe and Tool® Fixed Blades

Lynn C. Thompson has become enamored with the simple functionality of drop-forged knives. Their solid one-piece construction allows for new levels of strength and durability, and their bare-bones ruggedness has an undeniable appeal to Lynn, who's been an avid survivalist, hunter and outdoorsman. These incredibly tough and hard-wearing blades have no leather or wood handle to crack, rot or break, and no loose parts to break, damage or lose in the field. They are easy to maintain and clean, and inexpensive enough that you can afford a spare to add to your hunting pack or bug-out-bag.

Cold Steel®'s Monolithic fixed blades are drop-forged (not cheaply cast!) from 52100 high carbon steel. Their solid steel bodies are expertly heat-treated from the tip of their sharp blades to the butt of their stout handles. Furthermore, each one is ergonomically contoured with a deep trough in the handle for a comfortable and secure grip. Easy to modify and simple to customize, they also make great 'project knives' for re-handling, filework, engraving or any other fun modification projects.

Drop Forged Bowie
This addition to Cold Steel®'s Drop Forged line of knives has total length of 35.8 cm (14 in.) and features a 24.1 cm (9 ½ in.) blade. It shares many of the same attributes of the other knives in the series, including the same robust construction, being forged as a single piece of steel, giving it a startling amount of strength. But, unlike the other Drop Forged knives, it has distinctive faux stag slabs incorporated into the handle.

The blade is flat ground to a moderately thin edge and is then honed to razor sharpness. The point of the blade is acute enough to offer deep penetration and the balance point is just in front of the guard, making it lively in the hand and only slightly blade heavy.
Like the other knives in the Drop Forged Series, it comes with a military grade Secure-Ex™ sheath that includes a detachable Cordura belt loop.

52100 High Carbon Steel
52100 high carbon is a hard-wearing steel which is an excellent choice for custom hunting and outdoor fixed blades. Often used by custom knife makers in forged blades that require toughness and wear resistance in unforgiving conditions.
