My favorite in my collection is my "D-17" I built it out of my broken Cold Steel Frontier Bowie. After 3 years of research I have concluded that my Frontier was defective in the heat treatment, and /or bad metal in the tang /riscosso areas. Thanks for your excellent instruction Dbad💯👍👍😎🗡

Hey Brother great video on a Piece of History. Something that I read or heard about Bowie Knives was that Men from all over would go to buy or wanted a knife like Jim Bowie. It got to where most Bowie knives were from England made by Sheffield. To be honest a Bowie knife isn’t out of date or style plus can’t be beat for everything that a Bowie knife can do. Doesn’t matter if its a cheap inexpensive Bowie to the most expensive Bowie. Each has a function and purpose. The knife Bowie used at the Sand Bar fight was described by witnesses as being like a large butcher knife.

Sheffield was an extremely popular maker and yes, a large chefs knife with a coffin grip

Howdy Donnie! Loverly video about my favorite blades. BTW, Musso is not a designer, he’s a collector of screen used blades from the movies. One of the very few historical blades in his collection is the Musso Bowie. Supposedly it has been authenticated to James Black’s shop in Washington on the Brazos. The same fella that made at least some of Jim Bowie’s blades.
