Böker Solingen Classic Western Bowie N690 Knife

- Made in Solingen / Germany -

Introduction:

The design of the traditional Boker Bowie was based on original drafts from the early 19th century and equipped with an extremely stable, 6.4 mm thick blade made from N690. The name of the knife goes back to James "Jim" Bowie, the famous pioneer and soldier who is revered as a hero of the Wild West. Contrary to the widely copied Sheffield Bowie, the variations of this outdoor knife resemble the early American Bowie with its s-shaped stainless steel crossguard sporting a finely satinized surface. The exquisite scales of domestic oak lend the Boker Bowie even more authenticity. Comes with a high-quality Western leather sheath in black, design based on the original.

Additional informations about "Steirer Eisen and "Armin Stütz":

The Austrian Armin Stütz began manufacturing knives in 1984 and founded the blacksmith Steirer Eisen in 1996. Since this time, knives and swords have been produced in pure manual work, initially, in particular, fixed knives, but for a number of years also increasingly folding knives for a wide range of applications. In the meantime, Steirer Eisen is Austria\'s largest blacksmith.
