Bark River Edwin Forrest Bowie Knife Natural Canvas Micarta BA08315MNC

The Bark River Edwin Forrest Bowie Knife in Natural is a commanding fixed blade built for those who appreciate classic American knife design backed by modern craftsmanship. Inspired by the legendary Bowie pattern, this knife delivers presence, power, and purpose in a form that’s meant to be used, not just admired. It’s a serious blade for serious users who demand strength, reach, and reliability from their gear.

The massive 12.25" trailing point blade is crafted from A2 tool steel, a material renowned for its toughness, edge stability, and ability to withstand heavy use. A2 is favored by professionals who value durability and easy field maintenance, making it well suited for large blades that see demanding work. The satin finish gives the blade a clean, refined appearance while helping reduce glare and highlight the knife’s bold profile. The trailing point design provides a long, sweeping cutting edge and excellent slicing ability, with a strong spine that supports powerful, controlled cuts.

Full tang construction ensures the Edwin Forrest Bowie is built from a single piece of steel, delivering exceptional strength and balance for a knife of this size. At 17" overall and weighing 18.3 ounces, it has the heft and authority expected from a true Bowie, yet it remains well balanced in hand. This knife inspires confidence whether it’s used for heavy camp chores, brush clearing, or demanding outdoor tasks where a smaller blade just won’t do.

The handle is made from natural canvas micarta, a proven material chosen for its durability and secure grip. Even in wet or dirty conditions, the handle maintains traction and control. The natural color gives the knife a classic, understated look that complements the traditional Bowie design while aging gracefully with use. The ergonomic shaping allows for a comfortable grip, even during extended cutting sessions.

A leather belt loop sheath is included to protect the blade and provide reliable carry. Built to match the knife’s rugged character, the sheath offers secure retention and convenient access when the knife is needed. Whether carried in the field or displayed as part of a serious collection, this sheath completes the package.

The Bark River Edwin Forrest Bowie is a bold, uncompromising knife that blends historical inspiration with modern materials and craftsmanship. It’s a blade designed to perform hard work and make a lasting impression.
