Estwing Bowie Knife - 6" Fixed Blade with Forged Steel Construction & Reinforced Nylon Sheath - EBK-6, Black

Estwing Bowie Knife - 6" Fixed Blade with Forged Steel Construction & Reinforced Nylon Sheath - EBK-6, Black

Q: Is the hilt slippery? Is as comfortable as, say, a Mora Companion?

The hilt is forged in one piece with the blade. The whole knife is a solid forged tool. The handle seems to be coated in a thick black epoxy type layer. Very durable. But the surface is like thick paint, what can I say. The handle is .. "unique" .. it can be greatly improved with some paracord weaving through the handle. At first I didn't like the knife, but it's growing on me because of the quality of the steel. But the overall design could be improved. My vote is .. no. Don't like it..

Q: How thick is the blade spine?

Less than a 1/4". You really don't need to worry about bending or breaking though. These are tough knives. Not very fancy but effective.

Cool knife

What I wanted. It DOES NOT come sharpened. Mine had a dull enough edge it had powder coat on the”blade”. I can sharpen it myself so not a big deal but something to consider. Good solid knife otherwise.

Strong and good quality, handle is different

Better than alot of other knifes out there and unique. The handle is different than other more quick and nimble knives but I like the utility of it. More of a tool for your tool belt instead of a carry around knife. I love estwing stuff, for quality and made in usa.

The edge isn't sharp and the handle could have been rubberized.

Just got my 6" blade today and was amazed how sturdy it is how balanced it is and it looks great. The only three problems I have with it is it's not sharp,has some type of lacquer coating on the sharp edge and the handle could have been coated in rubber instead of being powered coated. Other than those three things it's a great every day trail and camping knife. Gave it 4 stars instead of five due to those three problems. I will be sharpening it and rubberizing the handle.

Quality was not there

First I'd like to say I have serval axes and hatchets made by Estwing and I'm very happy with the quality of them. I thought the quality of the Bowie knife was not there the handle had a few bad spots on it, the blade was not very sharp and didn't come to a point (was rounded) I should have sent it back! I was going to buy the Estwing machete but I'm probably not now

It is nice and forged in one piece

The edge was not sharp at. It was done by hand you can tell but not done very well. Maybe I just got one and was somebody new but there should be a quality control that picks up on it.It is nice and forged in one piece. Hopefully you’ll have better luck then me.
