TOPS Backpackers Bowie [BPB-01]
Bowie knives have long been popular amongst knife enthusiasts for good reason. The characteristic clip point blades provide for versatility in a wide range of users. However, most Bowie knives are on the larger side. There's nothing wrong with that and those knives have their place in every man's kit. But the goal with the Backpacker's Bowie was to make a shorter version that even a backpacker would carry (every ounce counts).
The TOPS Backpacker's Bowie offers a lightweight and versatile fixed blade for camping, hiking, and general outdoor use. Thick, contoured micarta scales provide a secure, ergonomic grip, with a choil and finger-guard for safe use. The large bowie style blade is outfitted with rugged, spine jimping, a lid notch, and an optional sharpened top swedge. Make light work of any outdoor cutting challenge with the TOPS Backpacker's Bowie. Features: Finger grooves and thumb rest jimping offer a high performance grip.
4.5" tumbled finish 1095HC steel clip point blade. The notch on the spine is for breaking wire or pulling a pot out of the fire and the swedge can be sharpened.
